$A$ mass $m$ is suspended from two coupled springs connected in series. The force constants for the springs are $K_1$ and $K_2$. The time period of the suspended mass will be:

  • A
    $T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{K_1 + K_2}}$
  • B
    $T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m(K_1 + K_2)}{K_1 K_2}}$
  • C
    $T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m(K_1 + K_2)}{K_1 K_2}}$
  • D
    $T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m K_1 K_2}{K_1 + K_2}}$

Three masses $700 \, g, 500 \, g$,and $400 \, g$ are suspended at the end of a spring as shown and are in equilibrium. When the $700 \, g$ mass is removed,the system oscillates with a period of $3 \, s$. When the $500 \, g$ mass is also removed,it will oscillate with a period of ...... $s$.

Initially,the system is in equilibrium. The time period of $SHM$ of the block in the vertical direction is

In an oscillating spring-mass system,a spring is connected to a box filled with sand. As the box oscillates,sand leaks slowly out of the box vertically so that the average frequency $\omega(t)$ and average amplitude $A(t)$ of the system change with time $t$. Which one of the following options schematically depicts these changes correctly?

When a body of mass $m$ is suspended from a spiral spring,the spring stretches by a distance of $20\, cm$. If the spring is further stretched by a small distance and released,what is the period of oscillation (in $, s$)?

On a smooth inclined plane,a body of mass $M$ is attached between two springs. The other ends of the springs are fixed to firm supports. If each spring has a force constant $K$,the period of oscillation of the body (assuming the springs are massless) is
