A spring whose unstrentches length is l has a force constant k . The spring is cut into two pieces of unstretches lengths l 1 and l 2 where, l 1 = n l 2 and n is an integer. The ratio k 1 / k 2   of the corresponding force constants, k 1 and k 2 will be:

Question

A spring whose unstrentches length is l has a force constant k . The spring is cut into two pieces of unstretches lengths l 1 and l 2 where, l 1 = n l 2 and n is an integer. The ratio k 1 / k 2 &#160; of the corresponding force constants, k 1 and k 2 will be:

Aicharya · Accepted Answer

Spring constants of the spring will be inversely proportional to length. k 1 k 2 = l 2 l 1 = 1 n
