A mass `m` is attached to a spring. The spring is stretched to `x` by a force `F` and refeased. After being released, the mass comes to rest at the initial equilibrium position. The coeffiecient of friction, `mu_(k)` , is `:-`

A

`mu_(k)=(2Kx)/(mg)`

B

`mu_(k)=(2mg)/(F)`

C

`mu_(k)=(F)/(2mg)`

D

`mu_(k)=(mg)/(2Kx)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
By using work energy theorm, `W=DeltaKE`
`Fx-mu_(k)mgx-mu_(k)mgx=0rArrmu_(k)=(F)/(2mg)`

An object of mass m is attached to a spring. The restroing force of the spring is F - lambdax^(3) , where x is the displacement. The oscillation period depends on the mass, l mabd and oscillation amplitude. Suppose the object is initially at rest. If the initial displacement is D then its period is tau . If the initial displacement is 2D , find the period.
