A 4 kg collar C slides on a horizontal rod between 2 springs A and B shown in Figure Q2(c). Initially the system is at rest and assume no friction between the collar and the rod. If the collar is pushed to the right until spring B is compressed 50 mm and released, using work and energy principle, determine the distance travel by the collar.
