A one kg block moves towards a light spring with a velocity of $8\, m/s$. When the spring is compressed by $3\, m$, its momentum becomes half of the original momentum. Spring constant of the spring is :-
$18/3\, N/m$
$16/3\, N/m$
$3\, N/m$
$8\, N/m$
$A$ block of mass $m$ moving with a velocity $v_0$ on a smooth horizontal surface strikes and compresses a spring of stiffness $k$ till mass comes to rest as shown in the figure. This phenomenon is observed by two observers:
$A$: standing on the horizontal surface
$B$: standing on the block
To an observer $B$, when the block is compressing the spring
The system of the wedge and the block connected by a massless spring as shown in the figure is released with the spring in its natural length. Friction is absent. maximum elongation in the spring will be
To simulate car accidents, auto manufacturers study the collisions of moving cars with mounted springs of different spring constants. Consider a typical simulation with a car of mass $1000\; kg$ moving with a speed $18.0\; km / h$ on a rough road having $\mu$ to be $0.5$ and colliding with a horizontally mounted spring of spring constant $6.25 \times 10^{3} \;N m ^{-1} .$ What is the maximum compression of the spring in $m$?
$A$ block of mass $m$ moving with a velocity $v_0$ on a smooth horizontal surface strikes and compresses a spring of stiffness $k$ till mass comes to rest as shown in the figure. This phenomenon is observed by two observers:
$A$: standing on the horizontal surface
$B$: standing on the block According to the observer $A$
An elastic string of unstretched length $L$ and force constant $k$ is stretched by a small length $x$. It is further stretched by another small length $y$. The work done in the second stretching is
