$A$ stiff spring having spring constant $k = 400 \text{ N/m}$ is attached to the floor vertically. $A$ mass $m = 10 \text{ kg}$ is placed on top of the spring. The block oscillates if it is pressed downward and released. Find the extension in the spring at which the block loses contact with the spring. (Take $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$) (in $\text{ cm}$)

$A$ small mass $m$, attached to one end of a spring with a negligible mass and an unstretched length $L$, executes vertical oscillations with angular frequency $\omega_{0}$. When the mass is rotated with an angular speed $\omega$ by holding the other end of the spring at a fixed point, the mass moves uniformly in a circular path in a horizontal plane. Then the increase in length of the spring during the rotation is

Two bodies of masses $1\, kg$ and $4\, kg$ are connected to a vertical spring,as shown in the figure. The smaller mass executes simple harmonic motion of angular frequency $25\, rad/s$,and amplitude $1.6\, cm$ while the bigger mass remains stationary on the ground. The maximum force exerted by the system on the floor is ..... $N$ (take $g = 10\, m/s^2$).

$A$ mass attached to a spring performs $S.H.M.$ whose displacement is $x = 3 \times 10^{-3} \cos(2\pi t) \text{ m}$. The time taken to obtain maximum speed for the first time is (in $s$):

Two bodies $A$ and $B$ of equal mass are suspended from two separate massless springs of spring constants $K_1$ and $K_2$ respectively. The two bodies oscillate vertically such that their maximum velocities are equal. The ratio of the amplitude of $B$ to that of $A$ is
