Two blocks, A and B, are initially held together by a string as shown in the figure; the mass of block A is of 2 kg and the mass of block B is 4 kg. The massless spring in-between the two blocks has a spring constant of k = 655 N/m and is initially compressed by 45 cm. The two blocks are initially moving together with a speed of 1 m/s. When the string is cut (i.e., when the blocks are released), the spring expands and pushes the two blocks apart. What is the speed (in m/s) of the block A? You may assume that the surface is horizontal and frictionless. HINT: As shown in the figure, va and v must be in opposite directions (i.e., have opposite sign).

Two blocks on a frictionless table are held at rest with a compressed spring between them. When the blocks are released, the spring pushes them apart and they move in opposite directions. The spring has a spring constant of 215N / m and was compressed by 0.20 m. If one of the blocks moves at 1.50 m/s and the other moves away at 3.00 m/s , what is the mass of the heavier block in kg?

Two blocks on a friction less table are held at rest with a compressed spring between them. When the blocks are released, the spring pushes them apart and they move in opposite directions. The spring has a spring constant of 215 N/m. One of the blocks moves away at 0.45 m/s while the other moves away at 0.90 m/s. The heavier of the two blocks has a mass of 1.4 kg. How far was the spring compressed in m?
