Paragraph: A uniform thin cylindrical disk of mass M and radius R is attached to two identical massless springs of spring constant k which are fixed to the wall as shown in the figure. The springs are attached to the axle of the disk symmetrically on either side at a distance d from its centre. The axle is massless and both the springs and the axle are in a horizontal plane. The unstretched length of each spring is L
Options
- A-k x
- B-2 k x
- C- 2 k x 3
- D- 4 k x 3
Correct answer
D. - 4 k x 3
Step-by-step solution
2 k x-f M =R [ f R 1 2 M R^2 ] Solving this equation, we get f= 2 k x 3 |F_ net |=2 k x-f=2 k x- 2 k x 3 = 4 k x 3 This is opposite to displacement. F_ net =- 4 k x 3 correct option is (d).
