The spring constant of a spring K, when it is divided into n equal parts, then the spring constant of one piece is (a) K/n (b) nK (c) nK/(n+1) (d) (n+1)K/n

Answer»

Correct Option (b) nK 

Explanation :

When a spring is cut into n equal parts, the spring constant k of each part is given by

1/K = 1/K+1/K+1/K+.......n terms = n/K
k = nK
- k is spring cosntant of one small pieces
-K is spring constant of original
