Answer:
Option A
Explanation:
Just Before Collision
Just After Collision
Let velocities of 1 kg and 2 kg blocks just after collision be v1 and v2 respectively.
From momentum conservation principle,
$1\times 2= 1v_{1}+2v_{2}$ .............(i)
Collision is elastic. Hence e=1 or relative velocity of separation = relation velocity of approach
$v_{2}-v_{1}=2$ ..........(ii)
From Eqs.(i) and (ii),
$v_{2}=\frac{4}{3}m/s$ , $v_{1}=\frac{-2}{3}m/s$
2 kg block will perform SHM after collision,
$t=\frac{T}{2}=\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}=3.14s$
Distance = $\mid v_{1}\mid t=\frac{2}{3}\times 3.14$
=2.093= 2.093 m
