A frame of mass 200 g when suspended from a masselss spring extends is by 10 cm . A lump of clay of mass 200 g is dropped from rest on to the frame through which pan moves downward?

Solution
The condition of clay with pan is inealstic, so energy will not be conserved but momentum will be conserved
Applying law of conservation of momentum
400V=200√2gh or v=√2gh2
KE of putty and pan =12×400×2gh4=100gh=100×30×g=3000g
