In the arrangement shown in figure match the following:

Column-I | Column-II |
(i) Velocity of center of mass | [A] 2 SI unit |
(ii) Velocity of combined mass when compression in the spring is maximum | [B] 1 SI unit |
(iii) Maximum compression in the spring | [C] 4 SI unit |
(iv) Maximum potential energy stored in the spring | [D] 0.5 SI unit |
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.
(i)-[B], (ii)-[B], (iii)-[B], (iv)-[A]
Sol. v cm =
= 1 m/s
During maximum compression also, velocity of combined mass is 1 m/s
Now, U max = K i – K f
=
× 2 × (2) 2 –
× 4 × (1) 2 = 2J
From
K
= 2J
we have, X max = 1 m
