On a frictionless horizontal plane, a bob of mass $m=0.1 kg$ is attached to a spring with natural length $l_0=0.1 m$. The spring constant is $k_1=0.009 Nm ^{-1}$ when the length of the spring $I > l_0$ and is $k_2=0.016 Nm ^{-1}$ when $ I < l_0$. Initially the bob is released from $l=0.15 m$. Assume that Hooke's law remains valid throughout the motion. If the time period of the full oscillation is $T=(n \pi) s$, then the integer closest to $n$ is. . . . .

    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 $g =10 \ m / s ^2$ )
