A block of 2 kg is suspended from a ceiling by a massless spring of spring constant k = 100 N/m. What is the elongation of the spring? If another 1 kg is added to the block, what would be the further elongation?

उत्तर
Given,
mass of the first block, m = 2 kg
k = 100 N/m
Let elongation in the spring be x. 
From the free-body diagram,
kx = mg
\[x = \frac{mg}{k} = \frac{2 \times 9 . 8}{100}\]
\[ = \frac{19 . 6}{100} = 0 . 196 \approx 0 . 2 m\]
Suppose, further elongation, when the 1 kg block is added, is \[∆ x\] Then, \[k\left( x + ∆ x \right) = m'g\]
⇒ k \[∆ x\] 3g − 2g = g
\[\Rightarrow ∆ x = \frac{g}{k} = \frac{9 . 8}{100} = 0 . 098 \approx 0 . 1 m\]

A plumb bob is hung from the ceiling of a train compartment. If the train moves with an acceleration 'a' along a straight horizontal track , the string supporting the bob makes an angle tan−1 (a/g) with the normal to the ceiling. Suppose the train moves on an inclined straight track with uniform velocity. If the angle of incline is tan−1 (a/g), the string again makes the same angle with the normal to the ceiling. Can a person sitting inside the compartment tell by looking at the plumb line whether the train is accelerating on a horizontal straight track or moving on an incline? If yes, how? If not, then suggest a method to do so.
