One-forth length of a spring of force constant $K$ is cut away. The force constant of the remaining spring will be
A
$\frac{3}{4}K$
B
$\frac{4}{3}K$
C
$K$
D
$4 K$
Solution
(b) By using $K \propto \frac{1}{l}$
Since one fourth length is cut away so remaining length is $\frac{3}{4}th$, hence $k$ becomes $\frac{4}{3}$ times i.e., $k' = \frac{4}{3}x$.
