Figure 14.26 (a) shows a spring of force constant k clamped rigidly at one end and a mass m attached to its free end. A force F applied at the free end stretches the spring. Figure 14.26 (b) shows the same spring with both endsfree and attached to a mass m at either end. Each end of the spring in Fig. 14.26(b) is stretched by the same force F What is the maximum extension of the spring in the two cases ?

Figure 14.26 (a) shows a spring of force constant k clamped rigidly at one end and a mass m attached to its free end. A force F applied at the free end stretches the spring. Figure 14.26 (b) shows the same spring with both endsfree and attached to a mass m at either end. Each end of the spring in Fig. 14.26(b) is stretched by the same force F If the mass in Fig. (a) and the two masses in Fig. (b) are released, what is the period of oscillation in each case ?

A stretching force of 1 N is applied at one end of a spring balance and an equal sretching force is applied at the other end at the same time. The reading on the balance will be

A circular disc of mass 10 kg is suspended by a wire attached to its centre. The wire is twisted by rotating the disc and released. The period of torsional oscillations is found to be 1.5 s. The radius of the disc is 15 cm. Determine the torsional spring constant of the wire. (Torsional spring constant alpha is defined by the relation J = -alphatheta , where J is the restoring couple and 0 the angle of twist).

A soft spiral spring hangs freely. The lower end of the spring is immersed in a cup of mercury. The spring and the cup are connected to a source of direct current as shown in Fig.. What will happen to the spring after switch K is closed?

Suupose a helical spring is suspended from the roof and a very small weight is attached to its lower end. What will happen to the spring when the current is passed thorugh it? Give reason to support your answer.

A spring having with a spring constant 1200 N m^-1 is mounted on a horizontal table as shown in Fig. 14.24. A mass of 3 kg is attached to the free end of the spring. The mass is then pulled sideways to a distance of 2.0 cm and released.Determine the frequency of oscillations,
