Question

A toy train consists of an engine and wagon of equal mass m each, connected by a spring

with spring constant k. The relaxed length of the spring may be considered to be zero. The

train is initially placed at the centre of a horizontal, circular turntable (see Fig. 1), and is

free to move on a radial frictionless track on the turntable. The engine (alone) is now given

an initial (radial) velocity v0, and the turntable is independently set in motion to rotate

counterclockwise with an angular speed ω. Neglect the physical dimensions of the train.​
