MCQ
The force constant of a wire does not depend on
- ANature of the material
- BRadius of the wire
- CLength of the wire
- ✓None of the above
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
None of the above
d
(d) $K = \frac{{YA}}{L} = \frac{{Y \times \pi {r^2}}}{L} \Rightarrow K \propto \frac{{Y{r^2}}}{L}$
(d) $K = \frac{{YA}}{L} = \frac{{Y \times \pi {r^2}}}{L} \Rightarrow K \propto \frac{{Y{r^2}}}{L}$
i.e. force constant of a wire depends on young's modules (nature of the material), radius of the wire and length of the wire.

Two blocks $A$ and $B$ each of same mass are attached by a thin inextensible string through an ideal pulley. Initially block $B$ is held in position as shown in fig. Now the block $B$ is released. Block $A$ willl slide to right and hit the pulley in time $t_A$. Block $B$ will swing and hit the surface in time $t_B$.Assume the surface as frictionless. [Hint: Tension $T$ in the string acting on both blocks is same in magnitude. Acceleration needed for horizontal motion is from $T$.
