प्रश्न
A block of mass m with a charge q is placed on a smooth horizontal table and is connected to a wall through an unstressed spring of spring constant k, as shown in the figure. A horizontal electric field E, parallel to the spring, is switched on. Find the amplitude of the resulting SHM of the block.

उत्तर
Given:
Charge of the block = q
Electrical field intensity = E
Mass of the block = m
Spring constant = k
Electric force, F = qE
Spring force, F = − kx (where x is the amplitude)
Therefore, qE = − kx
\[\Rightarrow x = \left| - \frac{qE}{k} \right| = \frac{qE}{k}\]
