Two identical point masses $P$ and $Q$,suspended from two separate massless springs of spring constants $k_1$ and $k_2$,respectively,oscillate vertically. If their maximum speeds are the same,the ratio $(A_Q / A_P)$ of the amplitude $A_Q$ of mass $Q$ to the amplitude $A_P$ of mass $P$ is

  • A
    $k_2 / k_1$
  • B
    $k_1 / k_2$
  • C
    $\sqrt{k_2 / k_1}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{k_1 / k_2}$

Two springs with force constants $k_1$ and $k_2$ have the same mass attached to their ends. Both objects have the same maximum velocity. What is the ratio of their amplitudes?

The springs in the figure are identical,but the length of the spring in $A$ is three times that in $B$. The ratio of the time periods $T_A/T_B$ is:

$A$ 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

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
