A particle suspended from a vertical spring oscillates10times per second. At the highest point of oscillation, the spring becomes unstretched. Find the speed when the spring is stretched by0.20 cm. Take, g=π2 m/s2

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

When a spring is in equilibrium, its extension=mgkAt the highest point of block, spring is in its natural length.

Hence, amplitude,A=mgk

Given,f=10 Hz

ω=2πf=20π  rad s-1

∴ ω=km

On squaring both sides, we get

km=ω2

⇒ vmax=Aω

=mkgω=gωω2

=gω=π220π=π20 m s-1

∴  A=mgk=gω2

=π2400 π2=0.25100 m=0.25  cm

Now, when the extension is0.20  cm,then displacement from the equilibrium position=0.25-0.20=0.05  cm

x=0.05  cm

∴ v=ωA2-x2

=20π0.252-0.052

=2π6  cm s-1

=15.4 cm s-1
