Simple Harmonic Motion 3 Question 7

7. One end of a long metallic wire of length L is tied to the ceiling. The other end is tied to a massless spring of spring constant k. A mass m hangs freely from the free end of the spring. The area of cross-section and the Young’s modulus of the wire are A and Y respectively. If the mass is slightly pulled down and released, it will oscillate with a time period T equal to

(a) 2π(m/k)1/2

(b) 2πm(YA+kL)YAk

(c) 2π[(mYA/kL)1/2

(d) 2π(mL/YA)1/2

Answer:

Correct Answer: 7. (b)

Solution:

  1. keq=k1k2k1+k2=YALYAL+k=YAkYA+Lk

T=2πmkeq=2πm(YA+Lk)YAk

NOTE Equivalent force constant for a wire is given by k=YAL. Because in case of a wire, F=YALΔL and in case of spring , F=k.Δx. Comparing these two, we find k of wire =YAL.
