An ideal spring, with elastic constant, is compressed at a distance Ax from its rest position and is connected to a mass m. When the spring get released, the mass m is pushed towards the rest position of the spring, where it collides with another mass M-2m. The collision is completely inelastic. Consider any friction negligible and calculate: a) The velocity of the masses immediately after the collision. b) The period of the oscillation of the system. c) The amplitude of the oscillation. m 4x M=2m
