$A$ highly rigid cubical block $A$ of small mass $M$ and side $L$ is fixed rigidly onto another cubical block $B$ of the same dimensions and of low modulus of rigidity $\eta$ such that the lower face of $A$ completely covers the upper face of $B$. The lower face of $B$ is rigidly held on a horizontal surface. $A$ small force $F$ is applied perpendicular to one of the side faces of $A$. After the force is withdrawn,block $A$ executes small oscillations. The time period of which is given by:

  • A
    $2\pi \sqrt {\frac{M\eta}{L}}$
  • B
    $2\pi \sqrt {\frac{L}{M\eta}}$
  • C
    $2\pi \sqrt {\frac{ML}{\eta}}$
  • D
    $2\pi \sqrt {\frac{M}{\eta L}}$

$A$ mass $M$ is suspended by two springs of force constants $K_1$ and $K_2$ respectively,as shown in the diagram. The total elongation (stretch) of the two springs is

$A$ rectangular block of mass $5\,kg$ attached to a horizontal spiral spring executes simple harmonic motion of amplitude $1\,m$ and time period $3.14\,s$. The maximum force exerted by the spring on the block is $.......N$.

The springs shown in the figure are identical,each having a spring constant $K$. When mass $A = 4\, kg$ is attached,the elongation of the spring is $1\, cm$. If mass $B = 6\, kg$ is attached to the system of two springs in series as shown,the total elongation produced is ..... $cm$.

The force-deformation equation for a nonlinear spring fixed at one end is $F = 4x^{1/2}$,where $F$ is the force (expressed in newtons) applied at the other end and $x$ is the deformation expressed in meters.

Two small bodies of mass $2 \, kg$ each are attached to each other using a thread of length $10 \, cm$,and hang on a spring whose force constant is $200 \, N/m$,as shown in the figure. We burn the thread. What is the distance between the two bodies when the top body first arrives at its highest position? (Take $\pi^2 = 10$)
