A spring whose unstretched length is l h...

A spring whose unstretched length is l has a force constant k. The spring is cut into two piece of unstretched lengths `1/1`and `1/2`where, and n is an integer. The ratio of the corresponding force constants, `k_(1)` and `k_(2)` will be:

A

`k eta and k(eta +1)`

B

`(k(eta+1))/(eta) and k(eta-1)`

C

`(k(eta-1))/(eta) and k(eta+1)`

D

`(k(eta+1))/(eta) and k(eta+1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`l_(1) = eta l_(2) rArr l_(1) : l_(2)=eta :1`
`rArr l_(1)=(eta)/(eta+1) l & l_(2)=(1)/((eta+1))l`
so `k_(1)=(eta+1)/(eta) k, k_(2)= (eta+1)k`
