Question

The figure shows a small block of mass m attached to a spring of force constant k and an identical spring hangs from the ceiling. Initially, lower spring is in the compressed state with compression equal to 3mgk from the natural length of spring. When the block is released it strikes upper spring and sticks to it. What is the amplitude of oscillation (in cm) after sticking given mg=10N,k=1007N/m.

Solution

Mas=m
Force constant=K
Compression=3mgK
mg=10N
k=1007N/m
Amplitude of oscillation (in cm)
After sticking given,
mg=kx10=1007×xx=101007=1107cm
