A spring of stiffness k is kept compressed by applying horizontal force on m by a length x0 \(\left(=\frac{m g}{k}\right)\). If the force F is withdrawn suddenly, the block oscillates and finally stops. In consequence, frictional loss is equal to 50% of the initial potential energy stored in the spring. The coefficient of friction the between block and the ground is
  1. \(\frac{1}{2}\)
  2. \(\frac{2}{3}\)
  3. \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\)
  4. \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)

Answer

(C) 1 2
