Two springs with negligible masses and force constant of $K_1 = 200\, Nm^{-1}$ and $K_2 = 160\, Nm^{-1}$ are attached to the block of mass $m = 10\, kg$ as shown in the figure. Initially the block is at rest, at the equilibrium position in which both springs are neither stretched nor compressed. At time $t = 0,$ a sharp impulse of $50\, Ns$ is given to the block with a hammer.
