A block of mass `m` is attached to a spring of force constant `k` whose other end is fixed to a horizontal surface. Initially the spring is in its natural length and the block is released from rest. The average force acting on the surface by the spring till the instant when the block has zero acceleration for the first time is

A

`(mg)/(pi)`

B

`(2mg)/(pi)`

C

`(3mg)/(pi)`

D

`(4mg)/(pi)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`v_(max)=omegaxxmg//k`
`F_(av)=(mv_(max))/((T//4))=(2mg)/(pi)`

Find the maximum tension in the spring if initially spring at its natural length when block is released from rest.

A block of mass m connected to a spring of stiffness k is placed on horizontal smooth surface. When block is at x=0 , spring is in natural length. The block is also subjected to a force F=(k|x|)/(@) then

A block of mass m is connected to a spring (spring constant k ). Initially the block is at rest and the spring is in its natural length. Now the system is released in gravitational field and a variable force F is applied on the upper end of the spring such that the downward acceleration of the block is given as a=g-alphat , where t is time elapses and alpha=1m//s^(2) , the velocity of the point of application of the force is:

Figure shows two block A and B , each having a mass of 320 g connected by a light string passing over a smooth light pulley. The horizontal surface on which the block A can slide is smooth. The block A is attached to spring constant 40 N//m whose other end is fixed to a support 40 cm above the horizontal surface. Initially, the spring is vertical and unstretched when the system is released to move. Find the velocity of the block A at the instant it breaks off the surface below it. Take g = 10 m//s^(2) .

A block of mass m is attached to a massless spring of force constant k, the other end of which is fixed from the wall of a truck as shown in figure. The block is placed over a smooth surface and initially the spring is unstretched. Suddenly the truck starts moving towards right with a constant accleration a_(0). As seen from the truck
