$A$ vertical spring-mass system has the same time period as a simple pendulum undergoing small oscillations. Now, both of them are placed in an elevator moving downwards with an acceleration $a = 5 \,m/s^2$. The ratio of the time period of the spring-mass system to the time period of the pendulum is (Assume, acceleration due to gravity, $g = 10 \,m/s^2$)

At $t=0$,a particle executing $SHM$ with a time period $3 \ s$ is in phase with another particle executing $SHM$. The time period of the second particle is $T$ (less than $3 \ s$). If they are again in the same phase for the third time after $45 \ s$,then the value of $T$ is .... . (in $s$)

You are holding a shallow circular container of radius $R$,filled with water to a height $h$ $(h \ll R)$. When you walk with speed $v$,it is seen that water starts spilling over. This happens due to the resonance of the periodic impulse given to the container (due to walking) with the oscillation of the water in the container. If the time period of water oscillating in the container is inversely proportional to $\sqrt{h}$,then $v$ is proportional to

The energy of a particle executing simple harmonic motion is given by $E = Ax^2 + Bv^2$,where $x$ is the displacement from mean position $x = 0$ and $v$ is the velocity of the particle at $x$. Choose the incorrect statement.

Two identical balls $A$ and $B$,each of mass $0.1 \ kg$,are attached to two identical massless springs. The spring-mass system is constrained to move inside a rigid smooth pipe bent in the form of a circle as shown in the figure. The pipe is fixed in a horizontal plane. The centers of the balls can move in a circle of radius $0.06 \ m$. Each spring has a natural length of $0.06\pi \ m$ and a force constant of $0.1 \ N/m$. Initially,both balls are displaced by an angle $\theta = \pi/6$ radian with respect to the diameter $PQ$ of the circle and released from rest. The frequency of oscillation of the ball $B$ is:
