A body of mass m is suspended to an ideal spring of force constant K. The expected change in the position of the body due to an additional force F acting vertically downwards is,

A

`(3F)/(2K)`

B

`(2F)/(K)`

C

`(5F)/(2K)`

D

`(4F)/(K)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Let the change in the position of the body due to an additional force F is y.
`F=1/2ky`
`y=(2F)/k`
