A point mass of \(400 \mathrm{~g}\) executes S.H.M. under a force \(\mathrm{F}=-\left(10 \mathrm{Nm}^{-1}\right) \mathrm{x}\). If it crosses the centre of oscillation with a speed of \(10 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}\), the amplitude of motion is

  1. A \(2 \mathrm{~m}\)
  2. B \(4 \mathrm{~m}\)
  3. C \(0.4 \mathrm{~m}\)
  4. D \(0.5 \mathrm{~m}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(4 \mathrm{~m}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We have, \(\mathrm{F}=-10 \mathrm{x}\) Comparing it with \(\mathrm{F}=-\mathrm{m} \omega^2 \mathrm{x}\), we get \(\mathrm{m} \omega^2=10\) \[ \Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\frac{10}{\mathrm{~m}}}=\sqrt{\frac{10}{0.4}}=5 \mathrm{rad} / \mathrm{sec} \] Now,…
