A spring is compressed between two blocks with unequal masses, m1 and m2, held together by aspring as shown above. The objects are initially at rest on a horizontal surface with no friction. The spring is then cut. What is true of the two object system after the spring is cut?A. The velocities of the two objects are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.B. The kinetic energy of each block is equal and opposite.C. The kinetic energy remains the same as before the string was cut.D. The net final momentum of the two objects is zero.
