A block of mass m = 2 kg is connected to...

A block of mass `m = 2 kg` is connected to a a spring of force constant `k = 50 N//m`. Initially the block is at rest and tlhe spring has natural length. A constant force `F = 60 N` is applied horizontally towards, the maximum speed of the block (in `m//s`) will be (negelect friction).

The correct Answer is:
6

For maximum speed.
`(dv)/(dt)=0impliesa=0`
if at maximum speed elongation is x, then
`f=kximpliesx=(F)/(k)` now by WET,
`-(1)/(2)kx^(2)+Fx=(1)/(2)mv^(2)`
`V=(F)/(sqrt(mk))=6(m)/(s)`
