Q. Two blocks A & B of mass m and 2m respectively are connected by a spring of spring constant k. the masses are moving to the right with a uniform velocity v' each, the heavier mass leading the lighter one. The spring has its natural length during this motion . Block B collides heea on with a third block C of mass 2m at rest , the collision being completely elastic.
1) then tell the velocity of block B just after collision.
