Correct answer: 20
- Given data
- Mass of block:
- Amplitude:
- Time period:
We need the maximum spring force.
- Formula for maximum spring force in SHM
For a spring-block system,
So the maximum force occurs at maximum displacement :
Thus we first find the spring constant .
- Use time period formula
For a mass-spring system,
Rearranging,
Substitute the values:
Since ,
So,
- Find maximum force
- Final answer
