A spring is stretched by 5 cm by a force 10 N. The time period of the oscillations when a mass of 2 kg is suspended by it is [2021]
(1)
Force constant of spring, k=Fx
Here, F=10 N, x=5 cm; k=100.05=200 N/m
If the mass of 2 kg is suspended by the spring, then period of oscillation is
T=2πmk; T=2π2200=2π×0.1
T=0.628 s
