Force varies linearly with time with respect to $-(x-2)$

$F \propto-(x-2)$

Hence motion of the particle is an $S.H.M.$

    A small block is connected to one end of a massless spring of un-stretched length $4.9 \ m$. The other end of the spring (see the figure) is fixed. The system lies on a horizontal frictionless surface. The block is stretched by $0.2$ $m$ and released from rest at $t =0$. It then executes simple harmonic motion with angular frequency $\omega=\frac{\pi}{3} \ rad / s$.

    Simultaneously at $t=0$, a small pebble is projected with speed $v$ from point $P$ at an angle of $45^{\circ}$ as shown in the figure. Point $P$ is at a horizontal distance of $10 \ cm$ from $O$. If the pebble hits the block at $t=1 \ s$, the value of $v$ is (take $g =10 \ m / s ^2$ )

    A massless spring $(k = 800\, N/m)$, attached with a mass $(500\, g)$ is completely immersed in $1\, kg$ of water. The spring is stretched by $2\, cm$ and released so that it starts vibrating. What would be the order of magnitude of the change in the temperature of water when the vibrations stop completely? (Assume that the water container and spring receive negligible heat and specific heat of mass $= 400\, J/kg\, K$, specific heat of water $= 4184\, J/kg\, K$)
