उत्तर
Let the block m be displaced towards left by displacement x.
\[\therefore F_1 = -K_1X\] (compressed)
\[ F_2 = -K_2X\] (expanded)
\[ma = F_1 + F_2\]
\[\Rightarrow a = \frac{- x\left( k_1 + k_2 \right)}{m}\]
i.e. \[\left( k_1 + k_2 \right)\frac{x}{m}\] opposite the displacement or towards the mean position.

A free 238U nucleus kept in a train emits an alpha particle. When the train is stationary, a nucleus decays and a passenger measures that the separation between the alpha particle and the recoiling nucleus becomes x at time t after the decay. If the decay takes place while the train is moving at a uniform velocity v, the distance between the alpha particle and the recoiling nucleus at a time t after the decay, as measured by the passenger, is
