JEE Advanced 2023 Medium - A small block is connected to one end of a massless spring of un-stretched length \(4.9 \mathrm{~m}\). The other end of the spring (see the figure) is fixed. The system lies on a horizontal frictionless surface. The block is stretched by \(0.2 \mathrm{~m}\) and released from rest at \(t=0\).
