Height x above the ground.

It will be 2x for the left limb but x in the right one. Got me?

--- Quote from: ashish on October 10, 2010, 08:00:25 am ---Keplers law T^2 is direcly proportional to R^3

therefore T^2/R^3 = constant

(27.4*24*60*60)^2 / (3.84*10^8)^3 =9.8977*10^-14

let the period be T

T^2 / R^3 = 9.8977*10^-14
T^2 = (9.8977*10^-14)* (6.4*10^6)^3
T = 5093.74 sec
T=1h24min

is that right?

why is it that the normal reaction force=force of gravity - centerpital force.
shouldnt it be plus?

i need help in this question

The load on each of the arrangements is L.
For each arrangement , complete the table by determining
(i) the total extension in terms of e,
(ii) the spring constant in terms of k.

Hmm......Ashish......your spring constants are ok. But am afraid the extensions are not  :-[

Anyway dude, you should know that for spring constant,
When springs are in parallel, their net spring constants are added together. ( Same as for a capacitor and opposite to that of resistors)

When they are in series they are calculated as shown KR = [1/k + 1/k]-1 or 1/KR = 1/k + 1/k

For extension,
When in series, net extension is the sum of the extension of each spring.
When in parallel, it is calculated as shown eR = [1/e + 1/e]-1 or 1/eR = 1/e + 1/e

Let's back to the question now :
1. Total extension will be the sum of extension by each springs when they are connected in series. Each spring extends by e
Hence total extension will be 2e
Spring constant will be [1/k + 1/k]-1 = k/2

2. Since the two springs are connected in parallel, total extension will be e/2 and net spring constant will be 2k
eR = [1/e + 1/e]-1 = e/2
KR = k + k = 2k

3. Total extension : 3e/2
Net spring constant : 2k/3
Use the values you obtained in part(ii)
Total extension = e/2 + e = 3e/2
For the two springs in parallel, net spring constant will be 2k. Hence spring constant of the whole system will be [1/2k + 1/k]-1 = 2k/3

NOTE : kR and eR are the resultant spring constants and resultant extensions respectively.
