An ideal massless spring $ S $ can be compressed 1 m by a force of 100 N in equilibrium. The same spring is placed at the bottom of a frictionless inclined plane inclined at $ 30^{\circ} $ to the horizontal. A 10 kg block $ M $ is released from rest at the top of the incline and is brought to rest momentarily after compressing the spring by 2 m . If $ g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} $, what is the speed of mass just before it touches the spring?
