Let $T_1$ and $T_2$ be the time periods of two springs $A$ and $B$ when a mass $m$ is suspended from them separately. Now both the springs are connected in parallel and the same mass $m$ is suspended with them. If $T$ is the new time period in this position,then:

  • A
    $T = T_1 + T_2$
  • B
    $T = \frac{T_1 T_2}{T_1 + T_2}$
  • C
    $T^2 = T_1^2 + T_2^2$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{T^2} = \frac{1}{T_1^2} + \frac{1}{T_2^2}$

$A$ flat horizontal board moves up and down in $SHM$ with an amplitude $\alpha$. What is the shortest permissible time period of the vibration such that an object placed on the board does not lose contact with the board?

In the given figure,a mass $M$ is attached to a horizontal spring which is fixed on one side to a rigid support. The spring constant of the spring is $k$. The mass oscillates on a frictionless surface with time period $T$ and amplitude $A$. When the mass is at its maximum displacement (extreme position),another mass $m$ is gently placed upon it. The new amplitude of oscillation will be
