A block of mass $\displaystyle m$, lying on a smooth horizontal surface, is attached to a spring (of negligible mass) of spring constant k . The other end of the spring is fixed, as shown in the figure. The block is initally at rest in its equilibrium position. If now the block is pulled with a constant force F, the maximum speed of the block is :
