The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the motion of the masses P and Q attached to their respective springs and determine the velocity of the image of Q in the plane mirror of block P when Q is at its lowest point for the first time. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the System**: - We have two masses, P and Q, attached to springs with spring constants 4K and K, respectively. - Both masses can oscillate independently, executing simple harmonic motion (SHM). 2. **Finding the Time Periods**: - The time period (T) for a mass-spring system is given by the formula: \[ T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}} \] - For mass P (attached to spring constant 4K): \[ T_P = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{M}{4K}} = \pi \sqrt{\frac{M}{K}} \] - For mass Q (attached to spring constant K): \[ T_Q = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{M}{K}} \] - From this, we can see that: \[ T_Q = 2 T_P \] - This means the time period of Q is twice that of P. 3. **Understanding the Motion**: - When Q is at its lowest point for the first time, it has completed half of its oscillation (downward motion). - Since T_Q is twice T_P, it implies that while Q is at its lowest point, mass P would have completed its full oscillation (up and down). 4. **Velocity at the Lowest Point**: - At the lowest point of its motion, the velocity of mass Q is zero (as it momentarily stops before changing direction). - The velocity of mass P at this moment can be determined by its motion characteristics. Since P oscillates faster, it would be at its mean position when Q is at its lowest point. 5. **Velocity of P**: - The velocity of mass P at its mean position is at its maximum. - The maximum speed \( v_{max} \) for a mass in SHM is given by: \[ v_{max} = \omega A \] - Where \( \omega = \frac{2\pi}{T} \) and \( A \) is the amplitude of oscillation. 6. **Relative Velocity**: - Since Q is at its lowest point (velocity = 0) and P is at its mean position (velocity = maximum), the velocity of the image of Q in the mirror of block P with respect to the ground is equal to the velocity of P. - Therefore, the velocity of the image of Q is equal to the velocity of P. ### Final Answer: The velocity of the image of Q in the plane mirror of block P with respect to the ground when Q is at the lowest point for the first time is equal to the maximum velocity of mass P.
