$A$ block of mass $M_1$ is hanged by a light spring of force constant $k$ to the top bar of a reverse Uframe of mass $M_2$ on the floor. The block is pooled down from its equilibrium position by $a$ distance $x$ and then released. Find the minimum value of $x$ such that the reverse $U$ -frame will leave the floor momentarily.

Two particles of mass $m$ are constrained to move along two horizontal frictionless rails that make an angle $2\theta $ with respect to each other. They are connected by a spring with spring constant $k$ . The angular frequency of small oscillations for the motion where the two masses always stay parallel to each other (that is the distance between the meeting point of the rails and each particle is equal) is 

A mass $M$ is suspended from a spring of negligible mass. The spring is pulled a little and then released so that the mass executes $S.H.M.$ of time period $T$. If the mass is increased by m, the time period becomes $5T/3$. Then the ratio of $m/M$ is

A block of mass $m$ is having two similar rubber ribbons attached to it as shown in the figure. The force constant of each rubber ribbon is $K$ and surface is frictionless. The block is displaced from mean position by $x\,cm$ and released. At the mean position the ribbons are underformed. Vibration period is
