MCQ
A spring having a spring constant $‘K’$ is loaded with a mass $‘m’$. The spring is cut into two equal parts and one of these is loaded again with the same mass. The new spring constant is
  • A
    $\frac{K}{2}$
  • B
    $K$
  • $2K$
  • D
    ${K^2}$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$2K$
c
(c) Spring constant $(k) \propto \frac{1}{{{\rm{Length \,of \,the \,spirng\, (}}l{\rm{)}}}}$ as length becomes half, $k$ becomes twice is $2k$.
