@PeriodicElements Hi There, That's almost correct. The spring is also important in pushing the two stages apart at burnout. The momentum alone of the second stage isn't enough to separate the two stages, as it is decelerating due to drag and the booster is decelerating at the same rate. If the spring is not strong enough then it won't separate as you saw in start of the video.
