A block of mass m is resting on a piston which is moving vertically with a SHM of period 1 s. The minimum amplitude of motion at which the block and piston separate is:

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
Acceleration = ꞷ 2 x
⇒ a =
x
When a = g block and piston are separated
a = g =
x ; (g = π 2 )
π 2 =
x
⇒ x =
= 0.25 m
