Question

Two springs with negligible masses and force constant of $K_{1} = 200 N m^{- 1}$ and $K_{2} = 160 N m^{- 1}$ are attached to the block of mass $m = 10 k g$ as shown in the figure.Initially the block is at rest ,at the equilibrium position in which both springs are neither stretched nor compressed.At time $t = 0,$ a sharp impulse of $50 N s$ is given to the block with a hammer

Period of oscillations for the mass m is

\frac{π}{6} s

Solution

The correct option is A Period of oscillations for the mass m is $\frac{π}{6} s$
$K_{e f f} = K_{1} + K_{2}$
$K_{e f f} = (200 + 160) N m^{- 1} = 360 N m^{- 1}$
$F = - K_{e f f} x = 50 N$ , means, Ampletude of SHM $= x = \frac{50}{360} m$
$T = 2 π \sqrt{\frac{m}{K_{e f f}}} = 2 π \sqrt{\frac{10}{360}} = \frac{π}{3}$
$ω = \frac{2 π}{T} = \frac{2 π}{(\frac{π}{3})} = 6 r a d / s e c$
$v_{m a x} = ω x (a m p l i t u d e) = 6 \times \frac{5}{36} = \frac{5}{6} m s^{- 1}$
only"A" is correct.
