What is spring constant? - significance, formula, unit, dimension & numerical
eduphysics CBSE AND NEET Click here New Field Submit Δ What is spring constant? – significance, formula, unit, dimension & numerical WHAT IS SPRING CONSTANT? Hooke’s law of elasticity Spring constant(k) is the constant of proportionality or the amount of energy delivered proportionality in the Hooke’s law experimental trial. Stronger or stiffer springs will have higher spring constant.…
Calculating Tension in Connected Mass - Step by Step Guide
Question: Three blocks of masses 6 Kg, 3 Kg and 1 Kg are connected with light string kept on a smooth surface. A horizontal force F= 14 N is applied as shown below.Calculate the tension in each string. Tension in each string in a connected mass Solution: To identify the forces acting on each mass: Gravitational force on the 6 Kg mass acting downward. Gravitational force on the 3 Kg mass…
Forces and Tension: Calculating String Tension in Connected Masses on Smooth Surface
Question: Two bodies of masses 15 kg and 10 kg are connected with light string kept on a smooth surface. A horizontal force F=500 N is applied to a 15 kg as shown in the figure.Calculate the tension acting in the string. String tension in connected masses Solution: To identify the forces acting on each mass: Gravitational force on the 15 kg mass acting downward. Gravitational force on the…
Cyclist Sharp Turn: Friction and Speed Impact
Question: A cyclist speeding at 18 Kmh-1 on a level road takes a sharp turn of radius 3 m without reducing the speed.The coefficient of friction between the tyre and the road is 0.1.Will the cyclist slip while taking the turn? Solution: Cyclist sharp turn Centripetal Force: Centripetal force acts inwards pulling the cyclist towards the centre of the turn.It depends on the cyclist’s speed and…

Calculating Car Retardation and Stopping Time in Physics | Explanation
Question: A car moving along a straight highway with speed of 126 Kmh-1 is brought to a stop within a distance of 200 m. What is the retardation of the car (assumed uniform), and how long does it take for the car to stop? Solution: Initial velocity of the car u =126 Kmh-1 Converting the velocity into meter per second $${126\frac{Km}{Hr}}={126\frac {(1000 \ m)}{(3600 \ s)}} ={126…
