One end of a $V$-tube containing mercury is connected to a suction pump and the other end to the atmosphere. The two arms of the tube are inclined to the horizontal at an angle of $45^{\circ}$ each. $A$ small pressure difference is created between the two columns when the suction pump is removed. Will the column of mercury in the $V$-tube execute simple harmonic motion? Neglect capillary and viscous forces. Find the time period of oscillation.

$A$ particle of mass $m$ is located in a one-dimensional potential field where the potential energy is given by: $V(x) = A(1 - \cos px)$, where $A$ and $p$ are constants. The period of small oscillations of the particle is

$A$ body executes simple harmonic motion under the action of a force $F_1$ with a time period $(4/5) \ s$. If the force is changed to $F_2$,it executes $SHM$ with a time period $(3/5) \ s$. If both the forces $F_1$ and $F_2$ act simultaneously in the same direction on the body,its time period (in $s$) is:

Under the influence of force $F_1$,a body oscillates with a period $T_1$,and due to another force $F_2$,the body oscillates with a period $T_2$. If both forces act simultaneously,what is the resultant period? (Consider the displacement is the same in all three cases.)
