MCQ
silver atom in a solid oscillates in simple harmonic motion in some direction with a frequency of $10^{12}  /sec$. What is the force constant of the bonds connecting one atom with the other? ................ $\mathrm{N/m}$     (Mole wt. of silver $= 108 $ andAvagadro number $= 6.02 \times 10^{23}$ $gm \ mole^{ -1}$ )
  • $7.1$ 
  • B
    $2.2 $ 
  • C
    $5.5 $ 
  • D
    $6.4 $ 

Answer

Correct option: A.
$7.1$ 
a
As we know, frequency in $SHM$

$\mathrm{f}=\frac{1}{2 \pi} \sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{k}}{\mathrm{m}}}=10^{12}$ where $\mathrm{m}=\mathrm{mass}$ of one atom

Mass of one atom of silver, $=\frac{108}{\left(6.02 \times 10^{23}\right)} \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{kg}$

$\frac{1}{2 \pi} \sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{k}}{108 \times 10^{-3}} \times 6.02 \times 10^{23}}=10^{12}$

Solving we get, spring constant, $\mathrm{K}=7.1 \mathrm{N} / \mathrm{m}$
