$A$ sphere of mass $m$ is attached to the lower end of a light vertical spring with force constant $k$. The upper end of the spring is fixed. The sphere is released from rest at the natural (unstretched) length of the spring and comes to rest again after falling through a distance $x$.

  • A
    The upward acceleration of the sphere at the lowest point is equal to $g$.
  • B
    $x = 2 mg/k$
  • C
    The acceleration of the sphere is zero at the position where it has fallen through a distance $x/2$.
  • D
    All of the above

$A$ mass $m_1$ connected to a horizontal spring performs $S.H.M.$ with amplitude $A$. While mass $m_1$ is passing through the mean position,another mass $m_2$ is placed on it so that both the masses move together with amplitude $A_1$. The ratio of $\frac{A_1}{A}$ is:

$A$ wire of length $L$,cross-sectional area $A$,and Young's modulus $Y$ is suspended,and a spring of force constant $k$ is attached to its lower end. If a mass $m$ is suspended from the spring and set into oscillations,what will be the time period of the system?

$A$ body executes $SHM$ under the action of force $F_1$ with time period $T_1$. If the force is changed to $F_2$,it executes $SHM$ with time period $T_2$. If both the forces $F_1$ and $F_2$ act simultaneously in the same direction on the body,its time period is:

The effective spring constant of the two-spring system as shown in the figure will be:

Two particles $A$ and $B$ of masses $m$ and $2m$ are suspended from massless springs of force constants $K_1$ and $K_2$. During their oscillation, if their maximum velocities are equal, then the ratio of amplitudes of $A$ and $B$ is
