The period of oscillation of a mass $M$ suspended from a spring of negligible mass is $T$. If along with it another mass $M$ is also suspended,the period of oscillation will now be

  • A
    $T$
  • B
    $\frac{T}{\sqrt{2}}$
  • C
    $2T$
  • D
    $\sqrt{2}T$

As shown in the figure, a block of weight $20 \,N$ is connected to the top of a smooth inclined plane by a massless spring of constant $8 \pi^2 \,Nm^{-1}$. If the block is pulled slightly from its mean position and released, the period of oscillations is (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,ms^{-2}$) (in $\,s$)

The potential energy of a particle of mass $m$ situated in a unidimensional potential field varies as $U(x) = U_0(1 - \cos ax)$,where $U_0$ and $a$ are constants. The time period of small oscillations of the particle about the mean position is

Two bodies $A$ and $B$ of equal masses are suspended from two separate springs of force constants $k_1$ and $k_2$ respectively. If the two bodies oscillate such that their maximum velocities are equal,the ratio of the amplitudes of oscillation of $A$ and $B$ will be

The scale of a spring balance which can measure from $0$ to $15 \ kg$ is $0.25 \ m$ long. If a body suspended from this balance oscillates with a time period $\frac{2 \pi}{5} \ s$,neglecting the mass of the spring,find the mass of the body suspended. (in $kg$)

The springs shown in the figure are identical,each having a spring constant $K$. When mass $A = 4\, kg$ is attached,the elongation of the spring is $1\, cm$. If mass $B = 6\, kg$ is attached to the system of two springs in series as shown,the total elongation produced is ..... $cm$.
