System shown in figure is released from ...

System shown in figure is released from rest . Pulley and spring is mass less and friction is absent everywhere. The speed of `5 kg` block when `2 kg` block leaves the constant of with ground is (force constant of spring `k = 40 N//m and g = 10 m//s^(2))`

A

`sqrt2 ms^(-1)`

B

`2 sqrt2 ms^(-1)`

C

`2 m s^(-1)`

D

`3 sqrt2 ms^(-1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Let x be the extension in the string when 2 kg block leaves the contact with ground. Then tension in the spring should be equal to weight of 2 kg block,
`kx=2g` or `x=(2g)/(k) = (2 xx 10)/(40)= (1)/(2)` m
Now from conservation of mechanical energy, we get,
`mgx = (1)/(2)kx^(2) + (1)/(2) mv^(2)`
`rArr v= sqrt(2gx-(kx^(2))/(m)) = sqrt(2 xx 10 xx (1)/(2) - (40)/( 4xx5) ) = 2 sqrt2 m s^(-1)`.

The system is released from rest with both the springs in unstretched positions. Mass of each block is 1 kg and force constant of each spring is 10 N/m. Extension of horizontal spring in equilibrium is:

A block of mass 10 kg is placed on a horizontal surface as shown in the figure and a force F = 100 N is applied on the block as shown, in the figure. The block is at rest with respect to ground. If the contact force between block and ground is 25n (in Newton) then value of n is : (Take g = 10 m//s^(2))

A planck of mass 5kg is placed on a frictionless horizontal plane. Further a block of mass 1kg is placed over the plank. A massless spring of natural length 2m is fixed to the plank by its one end. The other end of spring is compressed by the block by half of spring's natural length. They system is now released from the rest. What is the velocity of the plank when block leaves the plank? (The stiffness constant of spring is 100N//m )
