Question 40
ME-1NAT2 marksNeeds review
A point mass of 100 kg is dropped onto a massless elastic bar (cross-sectional area = 100 mm², length = 1 m, Young’s modulus = 100 GPa) from a height
of 10 mm as shown (Figure is not to scale). If
m/s², the maximum compression of the elastic bar is __________ mm.
