1 A particle of mass 0.3 kg is attached to one end of a light elastic string of natural length 0.6 m and modulus of elasticity 9 N . The other end of the string is attached to a fixed point \(O\) on a smooth horizontal surface. The particle is projected horizontally from \(O\) with speed \(4 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\). Find the greatest distance of the particle from \(O\).
