In a mechanical translational system, mass corresponds to which electrical element in force-voltage analogy?
Show Hint
Force-voltage analogy:
\[
\boxed{
\begin{aligned}
M &\leftrightarrow L,
B &\leftrightarrow R,
\frac{1}{K} &\leftrightarrow C.
\end{aligned}
}

- Inductance
- Capacitance
- Conductance

Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Recall the force-voltage analogy.
In the force-voltage (impedance) analogy,
\[
\begin{aligned}
\text{Force} &\leftrightarrow \text{Voltage},
\text{Velocity} &\leftrightarrow \text{Current}.
\end{aligned}
\]
Step 2: Identify the equivalent electrical element. The mass \(M\) stores kinetic energy, just as an inductor stores magnetic energy. Hence, \[ \boxed{\text{Mass} \leftrightarrow \text{Inductance}.} \] Therefore, \[ \boxed{(B)} \] is the correct answer.
