(b) By using $K \propto \frac{1}{l}$
Since one fourth length is cut away so remaining length is $\frac{3}{4}th$, hence $k$ becomes $\frac{4}{3}$ times i.e., $k' = \frac{4}{3}x$.

    Two blocks $A$ and $B$ each of mass m are connected by a massless spring of natural length L and spring constant $K$. The blocks are initially resting on a smooth horizontal floor with the spring at its natural length as shown in figure. A third identical block $C$ also of mass $m$ moves on the floor with a speed $v$ along the line joining $A$ and $B$ and collides with $A$. Then
