A block of 4 kg mass starts at rest and slides a distance d down a frictionless incline (angle 30°) where it runs into a spring of negligible mass. The block slides an additional 25 cm before it is brought to rest momentarily by compressing the spring. The force constant of spring is 400 N/m. the value of d is then
 (take g = 10 ms–2)
   
  1. 25 cm
  2. 37.5 cm
  3. 62.5 cm
  4. none of the above

Answer
