A block of mass $m$ moving with speed $v$ compresses a spring through distance $x$ before its speed is halved. What is the value of spring constant ?
$\frac{{3m{v^2}}}{{4{x^2}}}$
$\frac{{m{v^2}}}{{4{x^2}}}$
$\frac{{m{v^2}}}{{2{x^2}}}$
$\frac{{2m{v^2}}}{{{x^2}}}$
There is an electric field $E$ in $X$-direction. If the work done on moving a charge $0.2\,C$ through a distance of $2\,m$ along a line making an angle $60^\circ $ with the $X$-axis is $4.0\;J$, what is the value of $E$........ $N/C$
Calculate potential energy of a point charge $-q$ placed along the axis due to a charge $+ Q$ uniformly distributed along a ring of radius $R$. Sketch $P.E.$ as a function of axial distance $z$ from the centre of the ring. Looking at graph, can you see what would happen if $-q$ is displaced slightly from the centre of the ring (along the axis) ?
A particle of mass $m$ and charge $q$ is kept at the top of a fixed frictionless sphere. $A$ uniform horizontal electric field $E$ is switched on. The particle looses contact with the sphere, when the line joining the center of the sphere and the particle makes an angle $45^o$ with the vertical. The ratio $\frac{qE}{mg}$ is :-
Charge $Q$ is given a displacement $\vec r = a\hat i + b\hat j$ in an electric field $\vec E = E_1\hat i + E_2\hat j$ . The work done is
Charges $-q,\, q,\,q$ are placed at the vertices $A$, $B$, $C$ respectively of an equilateral triangle of side $'a'$ as shown in the figure. If charge $-q$ is released keeping remaining two charges fixed, then the kinetic energy of charge $(-q)$ at the instant when it passes through the mid point $M$ of side $BC$ is
