Question
A block of mass m slides down a wedge of mass m as shown. The whole system is at rest, when the height of the block is h = 10 m. Above the ground. The wedge surface is smooth and gradually flattens. There is no friction between wedge and ground. As the block slides down, which of the following quantities associated with the system remains conserved?
- Total linear momentum of the system of wedge and block
- Total mechanical energy of the complete system
- Total kinetic energy of the system
- Both linear momentum as well as mechanical energy of the system
The correct answer is: Total mechanical energy of the complete system

STATEMENT-1 : One end of ideal massless spring is connected to fixed vertical wall and other end to a block of mass m initially at rest on smooth horizontal surface. The spring is initially in natural length. Now a horizontal force F acts on block as shown. Then the maximum extension in spring is equal to maximum compression in spring.
STATEMENT-2 : To compress and to expand an ideal unstretched spring by equal amount, same work is to be done on spring

In the figure shown initially spring is in unstretched state & blocks are at rest. Now 100 N force is applied on block A & B as shown in the figure. After some time velocity of 'A' becomes 2 m/s & that of 'B' is 4 m/s & block A displaced by amount 10 cm and spring is stretched by amount 30 cm. Then work done by spring (in joule) force on A will be
