An ideal massless spring SS can be compressed 1.0 m in equilibrium by a force of 100 N. This same spring is placed at the bottom of a friction less inclined plane which makes an angle θ=30∘\theta = 30^\circ with the horizontal. A 10 kg mass mm is released from the rest at the top of the inclined plane and is brought to rest momentarily after compressing the spring by 2.0 m. The distance through which the mass moved before coming to rest is a. 8 m b. 6 m c. 4 m d. 5 m
