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
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Spring constant $(k) \propto \frac{1}{\text{Length of the spring (l)}}$
as length becomes half, k becomes twice is 2k.
