$A$ mass $M$ is suspended from a spring of negligible mass. The spring is pulled a little and then released so that the mass executes simple harmonic oscillations with a time period $T$. If the mass is increased by $m$,then the time period becomes $\frac{5}{4}T$. The ratio of $\frac{m}{M}$ is

  • A
    $\frac{9}{16}$
  • B
    $\frac{25}{16}$
  • C
    $\frac{4}{5}$
  • D
    $\frac{5}{4}$

On a frictionless horizontal plane,a bob of mass $m=0.1 \text{ kg}$ is attached to a spring with natural length $l_0=0.1 \text{ m}$. The spring constant is $k_1=0.009 \text{ N/m}$ when the length of the spring $l > l_0$ and is $k_2=0.016 \text{ N/m}$ when $l < l_0$. Initially,the bob is released from $l=0.15 \text{ m}$. Assume that Hooke's law remains valid throughout the motion. If the time period of the full oscillation is $T=(n \pi) \text{ s}$,then the integer closest to $n$ is:

When a body of mass $1.0 \,kg$ is suspended from a certain light spring hanging vertically, its length increases by $5 \,cm$. By suspending a $2.0 \,kg$ block to the spring and if the block is pulled through $10 \,cm$ and released, the maximum velocity in $m/s$ is: (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,m/s^2$)

$A$ block of mass $1 \; kg$ is fastened to a spring with a spring constant of $50 \; N m^{-1}$. The block is pulled to a distance $x = 10 \; cm$ from its equilibrium position at $x = 0$ on a frictionless surface and released from rest at $t = 0$. Calculate the kinetic,potential,and total energies of the block when it is $5 \; cm$ away from the mean position.

$A$ mass $M$ is suspended from a light spring. An additional mass $m$ added displaces the spring further by a distance $x$. Now the combined mass will oscillate on the spring with period:
