Practice question
Question
A spring of k = 200 N/m has a 0.5 kg mass. If E = 1 J, what is the amplitude?
Explanation
Given:
A spring of k = 200 N/m has a 0.5 kg mass. If E = 1 J, what is the amplitude?
These values define the system as per NCERT data.
Formula:
Total energy: E = 1/2 k A².
This is the standard NCERT relation for this phenomenon.
Substitution & Calculation:
1 = 1/2 × 200 × A² Rightarrow 1 = 100 A² Rightarrow A² = 0.01 Rightarrow A = 0.1 m .
Result:
The computed value matches the expected outcome and confirms the correct choice. Units and powers like J kgâ»Â¹ Kâ»Â¹, m/s², 10â»âµ are properly used as per NCERT.
