Two particles $A$ and $B$ of equal masses are suspended from two massless springs of spring constants $k_1$ and $k_2$,respectively. If the maximum velocities during oscillations are equal,the ratio of amplitudes of $A$ and $B$ is

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

$A$ spring of length $l$ and force constant $k$ is attached to a mass $m$ and oscillates with frequency $f_1$. If the spring is cut into two equal parts and one part is attached to the same mass $m$ to oscillate,its frequency becomes $f_2$. Find the relation between $f_1$ and $f_2$.

$A$ body of mass $m$ is attached to a spring which is oscillating with time period $6 \ s$. If the mass of the body is increased by $6 \ kg$,its time period increases by $3 \ s$. Determine the initial mass $m$. (in $kg$)

Two blocks of masses $m$ and $M$ $(M > m)$ are placed on a frictionless table as shown in the figure. $A$ massless spring with spring constant $k$ is attached to the lower block. If the system is slightly displaced and released,then ($\mu =$ coefficient of friction between the two blocks):
$(A)$ The time period of small oscillation of the two blocks is $T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{M + m}{k}}$
$(B)$ The acceleration of the blocks is $a = \frac{kx}{M + m}$ ($x =$ displacement of the blocks from the mean position)
$(C)$ The magnitude of the frictional force on the upper block is $f = \frac{mkx}{M + m}$
$(D)$ The maximum amplitude of the upper block,if it does not slip,is $A = \frac{\mu mg(M + m)}{mk} = \frac{\mu g(M + m)}{k}$ (Wait,let's re-evaluate: $f_{max} = \mu mg$. Since $f = ma = m \cdot \frac{kx}{M+m}$,at max amplitude $A$,$m \cdot \frac{kA}{M+m} = \mu mg \implies A = \frac{\mu g(M+m)}{k}$)
$(E)$ Maximum frictional force can be $\mu mg$.
