$A$ mass $m = 1.0\,kg$ is placed on a flat pan attached to a vertical spring fixed on the ground. The mass of the spring and the pan is negligible. When pressed slightly and released,the mass executes simple harmonic motion. The spring constant is $k = 500\,N/m$. What is the amplitude $A$ of the motion,so that the mass $m$ tends to get detached from the pan? (Take $g = 10\,m/s^2$).

  • A
    $A < 2.0\,cm$
  • B
    $A = 2.0\,cm$
  • C
    $A > 2.0\,cm$
  • D
    $A = 1.5\,cm$

Two bodies $M$ and $N$ of equal masses are suspended from two separate massless springs of force constants $k_1$ and $k_2$ respectively. If the two bodies oscillate vertically such that their maximum velocities are equal,the ratio of the amplitude of $M$ to that of $N$ is

The springs in the figure are identical,but the length of the spring in $A$ is three times that in $B$. The ratio of the time periods $T_A/T_B$ is:

An object is attached to the bottom of a light vertical spring and set vibrating. The maximum speed of the object is $15 \,cm/s$ and the period is $628 \,ms$. The amplitude of the motion in $cm$ is:

Four massless springs whose force constants are $2K, 2K, K$ and $2K$ respectively are attached to a mass $M$ kept on a frictionless plane as shown in the figure. If mass $M$ is displaced in the horizontal direction,then the frequency of the oscillating system is:

$A$ small mass $m$, attached to one end of a spring with a negligible mass and an unstretched length $L$, executes vertical oscillations with angular frequency $\omega_{0}$. When the mass is rotated with an angular speed $\omega$ by holding the other end of the spring at a fixed point, the mass moves uniformly in a circular path in a horizontal plane. Then the increase in length of the spring during the rotation is
