Simple Harmonic Motion 4 Question 1

1. A spring whose unstretched length is l has a force constant k. The spring is cut into two pieces of unstretched lengths l1 and l2 where, l1=nl2 and n is an integer. The ratio k1/k2 of the corresponding force constants k1 and k2 will be

(a) n

(b) 1n2

(c) 1n

(d) n2

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 1. (c)

Solution:

  1. If parameters like material, number of loops per unit length, area of cross-section, etc., are kept same, then force constant of spring is inversely proportional to its length.

In given case, all other parameters are same for both parts of spring.

 So, k11l1 and k21l2k1k2=l2l1=l2nl2=1n[l1=nl2]
