MCQ
A block of mass $m$ is pushed against a spring whose spring constant is $k$ fixed at one end with a wall. The block can slide on a frictionless table as shown in figure. If the natural length of spring is $L_0$ and it is compressed to half its length when the block is released, find the velocity of the block, when the spring has natural length
  • A
    $\sqrt {\frac{m}{k}} .\frac{{{L_0}}}{2}$
  • $\sqrt {\frac{k}{m}} .\frac{{{L_0}}}{2}$
  • C
    $\sqrt {\frac{k}{m}} .{L_0}$
  • D
    $\sqrt {\frac{{k{L_0}}}{m}} $

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\sqrt {\frac{k}{m}} .\frac{{{L_0}}}{2}$
b
The energy stored in the spring when it is compressed to $\frac{\mathrm{L}_{0}}{2}$ is converted into kinetic energy of the block

$\frac{1}{2} m u^{2}=\frac{1}{2} k\left(\frac{L_{0}}{2}\right)^{2}$

The persistence of sound in a room after the source of sound is turned off is called reverberation. The measure of reverberation time is the time required for sound intensity to decrease by $60 \,dB$. It is given that the intensity of sound falls off as $I_0 \exp \left(-c_1 \alpha\right)$ where $I_0$ is the initial intensity, $c_1$ is a dimensionless constant with value $1 / 4$. Here, $\alpha$ is a positive constant which depends on the speed of sound, volume of the room, reverberation time, and the effective absorbing area $A_e$. The value of $A_e$ is the product of absorbing coefficient (with value between $0$ and $1,1$ being a perfect absorber) and the area of the room. For a concert hall of volume $600 \,m ^3$, the value of $A_e$ (in $m ^2$ ) required to give a reverberation time of $1 s$ is closest to (speed of sound in air $=340 \,m / s$ )
