Two blocks, of masses M = 1.5 kg and 2M, are connected to a spring of spring constant k = 230 N/m that has one end fixed, as shown inthe figure. The horizontal surface and the pulley are frictionless, and the pulley has negligible mass. The blocks are released from restwith the spring relaxed. (a) What is the combined kinetic energy of the two blocks when the hanging block has fallen 0.084 m? (b) Whatis the kinetic energy of the hanging block when it has fallen that 0.084 m? (c) What maximum distance does the hanging block fallbefore momentarily stopping?TTY MH2M

A block of mass 2 kg is initially at rest on a frictionless surface. A force of 10 N is applied to the block for a distance of 5 meters along the horizontal direction. Calculate the work done on the block and the final kinetic energy of the block. (Note: In this question, assume the force is constant and applied parallel to the displacement of the block.) Take acceleration due to gravity as 9.8 m/s².
