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)`

A block of mass 0.18 kg is attached to a spring of force-constant 2 N//m . The coefficient of friction between the block and the floor is 0.1 Initially the block is at rest and the spring is un-stretched. An impulse is given to the block as shown in the figure. The block slides a distance of 0.06 m and comes to rest for the first time. The initial velocity of the block in m//s is V = N//10 . Then N is : .
