Two blocks A and B are connected to each other as shown in the figure. The string and spring is mass less and pulley frictionless. Block B slides over the horizontal top surface of stationary block C and the block A slides along the vertical side of C both with same uniform speed. The coefficient of friction between the blocks is 0.2 and the spring constant is 2000 N/m, if the mass of block A is 2kg, calculate (i) the mass of block B and (ii) energy stored in the spring. Take g = 10 m/s2. [ 10 kg, 0.1 J]
