Question

Two block of masses m subscript 1 end subscript and m subscript 2 end subscript are connected with a massless unstretched spring and placed over a plank moving with an acceleration 'a' as shown in figure. The coefficient of friction between the blocks and platform is mu.

  1. spring will be stretched is a greater than mu g    
  2. spring will be compressed if a less or equal than mu g    
  3. spring will neither be compressed nor be stretched for a less or equal than mu g    
  4. spring will be in its natural length under all conditions.    

The correct answer is: spring will be in its natural length under all conditions.
