Assertion :One end of an ideal mass less spring is connected to a fixed vertical wall and the other end has a block of mass m initially at rest on a smooth horizontal surface. The spring is initially in natural length. Now a horizontal force F acts on the block as shown. Then the maximum extension in spring is equal to the maximum compression in the spring. Reason: To compress and to expand an ideal unstretched spring by equal amount, same work is to be done on the spring.
