Question

Two springs of force constant k subscript 1 end subscript a n d k subscript 2 end subscript are connected as shown.
The effective spring constant k is

  1. k subscript 1 end subscript plus k subscript 2 end subscript    
  2. fraction numerator k subscript 1 end subscript over denominator k subscript 2 end subscript end fraction    
  3. k subscript 1 end subscript k subscript 2 end subscript    
  4. 2 k subscript 1 end subscript k subscript 2 end subscript    

The correct answer is: k subscript 1 end subscript plus k subscript 2 end subscript


    Effective spring constant of parallel combination
    k subscript e end subscript equals k subscript 1 end subscript plus k subscript 2 end subscript

    A mass of 2.0 kg is put on a flat pan attached to a vertical spring fixed on the ground as shown in the figure. The mass of the spring and the pan is negligible. When pressed slightly and released the mass executes slightly and released the mass executes a simple harmonic motion. The spring constant is 200 blank N m to the power of negative 1 end exponent. What should be the minimum amplitude of the motion, so that the mass gets detached from the pan? (Take g=10 m s to the power of negative 2 end exponent )
