Same spring is attached with `2kg` , `3kg` and `1kg` blocks in three different cases as shown in figure. If `x_(1)` , `x_(2)` and `x_(3)` be the extensions in the spring in these cases then (Assume all the block s to move with uniform acceleration).

A

`x_1=0`,`x_3gtx_2`

B

`x_2gtx_1gtx_3`

C

`x_3gtx_1gtx_2`

D

`x_1gtx_2gtx_3`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

If `m_1` and `m_2` are masses of blocks, then tension T in the string as well as spring is
`T=(2m_1m_2)/(m_1+m_2)g`
`T_1=2g`,`T_2=2.4g` and `T_3=1.33g`
`T_2gtT_1gtT_3`
or `x_2gtx_1gtx_3`

In figure, a block A of mass 2kg is moving to the right with a speed 5m//s on a horizontal frictionless surface. Another block B of mass 3kg a massless spring of spring constant 222N//m attached to it, is moving to the left on the same surface and with a speed 2m//s . Let us take the direction to the right as the positive X- direction. At some instant, block A collides with the spring attached to block B . At some other instant , the spring has maximum compression and then, finally, blocks move with their final velocities. Assuming that (i) the spring force is conservative and so there is no conversion of kinetic energy to internal energy and (ii) , no sound is made when block A hits the spring, answer the following questions. When the blocks are yet to attain their final velocities, in this situation at any instant when block A is moving with a velocity 4 hat(i) m//s , velocity of block B will then be :
