When a body is suspended from a spring and released slowly,the extension in the spring is $x$. If the body is released suddenly,the extension in the spring is:

  • A
    $x$
  • B
    $2x$
  • C
    $3x$
  • D
    $x/2$

When a $1.0\,kg$ mass hangs attached to a spring of length $50\,cm$,the spring stretches by $2\,cm$. The mass is pulled down until the length of the spring becomes $60\,cm$. What is the amount of elastic energy stored in the spring in this condition,if $g = 10\,m/s^2$? (in $Joule$)

What is the acceleration of $3 \,kg$ mass when the acceleration of $2 \,kg$ mass is $2 \,m/s^2$ as shown in the figure? (in $m/s^2$)

Two springs $A$ and $B$ are fixed at the top and are stretched by $8 \,cm$ and $16 \,cm$ respectively, when loads of $20 \,N$ and $10 \,N$ are suspended at the lower ends. The ratio of the spring constants of the springs $A$ and $B$ is (in $: 1$)

The system shown in the figure is in equilibrium and at rest. The spring and string are massless. Now, the string is cut. The acceleration of mass $2m$ and $m$ just after the string is cut will be:

Assertion $(A)$: When a spring is cut into two equal parts,the spring constant of each piece is twice that of the original spring. Reason $(R)$: Spring constant is inversely proportional to the length of the spring.
