A body of mass is tied to a spring of spring constant , while the other end of spring is fixed at point . If the body moves about in a circular path on a smooth horizontal surface with constant angular speed , then the ratio of extension in the spring to its natural length will be :
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
C.
Step-by-step solution
Let the extension in spring be and the natural length of spring be .
Here the centrifugal force will stretch the spring.
So, centrifugal force=spring force
