Two blocks of mass 2 kg are connected by a massless ideal spring of spring constant k = 10 N/m. The upper block is suspended from roof by a light string A. The system shown is in equilibrium. The string A is now cut, the acceleration of upper block just after the string A is cut will be
Before the string A is cut, let x be elongation in the spring.
As system is in equilibrium. (see Figure (a))
Then for lower block,
Just after the string A is cut (see Figure (b))
For upper block,
