$A$ light spring is suspended with mass $m_1$ at its lower end and its upper end fixed to a rigid support. The mass is pulled down a short distance and then released. The period of oscillation is $T$ seconds. When a mass $m_2$ is added to $m_1$ and the system is made to oscillate,the period is found to be $\frac{3}{2} T$. The ratio $m_1 : m_2$ is

  • A
    $2:3$
  • B
    $3:4$
  • C
    $4:5$
  • D
    $5:6$

$A$ simple harmonic oscillator consists of a particle of mass $m$ and an ideal spring with spring constant $k$. The particle oscillates with a time period $T$. The spring is cut into two equal parts. If one part oscillates with the same particle,the new time period will be

$A$ uniform cylinder of length $L$ and mass $M$ having cross-sectional area $A$ is suspended,with its length vertical,from a fixed point by a massless spring,such that it is half submerged in a liquid of density $\sigma$ at equilibrium position. When the cylinder is given a downward push and released,it starts oscillating vertically with a small amplitude. The time period $T$ of the oscillations of the cylinder will be
