A particle of mass $0.3$ kg is subjected to a force What will be the initial acceleration it is released from a point?

Open in App

Solution

mass of the particle, m = 0.3 kg
applied force, F = - kx;
$k = 15 N / m$
$x = 20 c m = 0.2 m$
Let the acceleration of the particle $= a$
Using the Newton’s 2nd law of motion we get,
$F = m \times a o r, - k x = m a$
or, $- 15 \times 0.2 = 0.3 \times a o r, a = - 3.0 / 0.3$
or, $a = - 10 m / s^{2}$
