$A$ particle at the end of a spring executes simple harmonic motion with a period $t_1$,while the corresponding period for another spring is $t_2$. If the period of oscillation with the two springs in series is $T$,then

  • A
    $T = t_1 + t_2$
  • B
    $T^2 = t_1^2 + t_2^2$
  • C
    $T^{-1} = t_1^{-1} + t_2^{-1}$
  • D
    $T^{-2} = t_1^{-2} + t_2^{-2}$

The drawing shows a top view of a frictionless horizontal surface,where there are two identical springs with particles of mass $m_1$ and $m_2$ attached to them. Each spring has a spring constant of $1200 \ N/m$. The particles are pulled to the right and then released from the positions shown in the drawing. How much time passes before the particles are again side by side for the first time if $m_1 = 3.0 \ kg$ and $m_2 = 27 \ kg$?
