Two blocks of mass 3 kg and 6 kg resp are placed on a smooth horizontal surface. They are connected by a light spring of force constant k=200 N/m.Initially the spring is unstretched.Velocity of 1 m/s is imparted to the block of mass 3 kg and vel of 2 m/s is imparted to the 6 kg block.The velocities are in opposite directions(such that they are moving away from each other).Find the maximum extension in the spring.
SINCE CHANGE IN K.E + CHANGE IN P.E = WORK DONE BY NONCONSERVATIVE FORCE+WORK DONE BY EXTERNAL FORCE
SINCE THERE IS NO NON CONSERVATIVE FORCE OR EXTERNAL FORCE THEREFORE CHANGE IN K.E + CHANGE IN P.E=0
SINCE THE MAXIMUM COMPRESSION WILL OCCUR WHEN BOTH THE BLOCK STOPS OR FINAL K.E =0
CONSIDER EXTENSION ON LEFT SIDE IS ''X'' AND RIGHT SIDE IS ''X*'' THEREFORE TOTAL EXTENSION IS X+X*
NOW 3X(-)+6X*(+)=0 THEREFORE X=2X*..........................(1)
SINCE POTENTIAL ENERGY OF A SPRING IS (1/2)Kx2
THEREFORE FROM CHANGE IN K.E + CHANGE IN P.E =0
WE GET FINALK.E - INITIALK.E + FINAL P.E -INITIALP.E=0
(0)-[(1/2 * 3 * 12)+(1/2 * 6 * 22)]+[(-1/2 * K *X2)+(1/2 *K * (X*)2)]-(0)]=0............................(2) NOTE: ALSO MENTION THE SIGN OF THE DIRECTION
