A classical mechanics problem by Md Zuhair

A block of mass 0.18 kg 0.18 \text{kg} is resting on a rough horizontal table having friction coefficient μ = 0.1 \mu = 0.1 . The block is attached to a spring of force constant k = 2 N/m k=2 \text{N/m} whose other end is attached to a fixed wall.

Initially, the block was at rest and spring was unstretched. All of a sudden, an impulse is given to the block due to which it starts moving at speed v v . If it stops for the first time after traveling a distance of 0.06 m 0.06 \text{m} , find 10 v 10v .

By applying law of conservation of energy,

m v 2 2 = k x 2 2 + μ m g x \large \frac{mv^{2}}{2}\ = \frac{kx^{2}}{2}\ + μmgx

Here,

m v 2 2 \large \frac{mv^{2}}{2} - Initial kinetic energy of the block

k x 2 2 \large \frac{kx^{2}}{2} - Elastic potential energy stored in the spring at the final position

μ m g x \large μmgx - Work done by friction against the motion of the block

x \large x - Displacement of the block

After substituting the given values, we get,

v \large v = 0.4 0.4

10 v = 4 \large \boxed{\color{#20A900}{10v} = \color{#20A900}{4}}

Are you at fiitjee ? @Md Zuhair

No, Why? I am in class X anyways. Giving boards this year. But why did you asked this?

Actually this same question was asked in one of our all India tests ,that's why I asked . BTW all the best for your boards.

Thank you.Social Science sucks, also Vernacular and English is ok.

Studying in grade X and you could deal yourself with problems which are not the part of garde X (I think so) . Really adoring ! :)

i too agree you are a genius @Md Zuhair . Actually this is a question of JEE Advance once asked. I was also asked in our Weekly Test at Aakash
