$A$ mass suspended from a vertical spring performs $S.H.M.$ with a period of $T = 0.1 \ s$. The spring is unstretched at the highest point of its motion. What is the maximum speed of the mass? (Take gravitational acceleration $g = 10 \ m/s^2$)

$A$ block of mass $2 \ kg$ is attached to one end of a massless spring whose other end is fixed at a wall. The spring-mass system moves on a frictionless horizontal table. The spring's natural length is $2 \ m$ and the spring constant is $200 \ N/m$. The block is pushed such that the length of the spring becomes $1 \ m$ and then released. At a distance $x \ m \ (x < 2)$ from the wall,the speed of the block will be:

Initially,the system is in equilibrium. The time period of $SHM$ of the block in the vertical direction is

$A$ mass $M$ is suspended from a spring of negligible mass. The spring is pulled a little and then released so that the mass executes $S.H.M.$ of period $T$. If the mass is increased by $m$,the time period becomes $\frac{5T}{3}$. What is the ratio $\left(\frac{M}{m}\right)$?

The frequency of oscillations of a mass $m$ connected horizontally by a spring of spring constant $k$ is $4 \ Hz$. When the spring is replaced by two identical springs connected in series as shown in the figure,the effective frequency is:
