A block of mass m, attached to a spring of spring constant k, oscillates on a smooth horizontal table. The other end of the spring is fixed to a wall. The block has a speed v when the spring is at its natural length. Before coming to an instantaneous rest, if the block moves a distance x from the mean position, then

a
x=m/k
b
m=1vm/k
c
x=vm/k
d
x=mv/k

detailed solution
