Two springs of force constants $K$ and $2K$ are connected to a mass $m$ as shown in the figure. The frequency of oscillation of the mass is:

  • A
    $(1/2\pi )\sqrt {(K/m)} $
  • B
    $(1/2\pi )\sqrt {(2K/m)} $
  • C
    $(1/2\pi )\sqrt {(3K/m)} $
  • D
    $(1/2\pi )\sqrt {(m/K)} $

$A$ 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

$A$ mass $M$ is suspended from a light spring. An additional mass $M_1$ added extends the spring further by a distance $x$. Now the combined mass will oscillate on the spring with period $T=$

The scale of a spring balance which can measure from $0$ to $15 \ kg$ is $0.25 \ m$ long. If a body suspended from this balance oscillates with a time period $\frac{2 \pi}{5} \ s$,neglecting the mass of the spring,find the mass of the body suspended. (in $kg$)

An object of mass $m$ is performing simple harmonic motion on a smooth horizontal surface as shown in the figure. Just as the oscillating object reaches its extreme position,another object of mass $2m$ is placed gently on the oscillating object,and it sticks to it. Consider the following statements:
$(a)$ Amplitude of oscillation remains unchanged.
$(b)$ Time period of oscillation remains unchanged.
$(c)$ Total mechanical energy of the system does not change.
$(d)$ The maximum speed of the oscillating object changes.
Which of the above statements are correct?

$A$ mass $m$ attached to a spring oscillates every $2 \, s$. If the mass is increased by $2 \, kg$,then the time period increases by $1 \, s$. The initial mass is ..... $kg$.
