Q.

The following figure shows a block of mass m suspended from a fixed point by means of a vertical spring. The block is oscillating simple harmonically and carries a charge q. There also exists a uniform electric field in the region. Consider four different cases. The electric field is zero in case 1, mg/q downward in case 2, mg/q upward in case 3, and 2mg/q downward in case 4. The speed at mean position is same in all cases. Select the correct alternative(s).

Detailed Solution

(1) Only equilibrium position changes. Time period remains same

T=2πm/k.

(2) 12kx2=12mv2

Since v at mean position is same amplitude will be same.

(3) In case 4 equilibrium position is x0=3mg/k. So maximum elongation = x0+Amplitude .
