(1) A wooden block performs SHM on a frictionless surface with frequency, 0. The block carries a charge +Q on its
surface. If now auniform electric field E is switched on as shown, then the SHM of the block will be
(A) of the same frequency and with shifted meanposition
(B) of the same frequency and with the same mean position
(C) of changed frequency and with shifted mean position
(D) of changed frequency and with the same mean position
When the uniform electric field is switched on, the positively charged block experiences a constant force in the direction of
the electric field and so the mean position of the block is shifted. But the frequency () of oscillation of the block is
unchanged since it depends only on the mass m of the block and the force constant k of the spring, in accordance with the
relation
= (1/2) [(k/m)]

would be more but as long as masses are equal it will
balance and total mass is equivalent in both places. Impulse
is Ft and equals chance in momentum, this is not affected by
gravity so also is same
