Two masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ are suspended together by a massless spring of constant $k$. When the masses are in equilibrium,$m_1$ is removed without disturbing the system; the amplitude of vibration is

$A$ weightless spring which has a force constant $k$ oscillates with frequency $n$ when a mass $m$ is suspended from it. The spring is cut into two equal halves and a mass $2m$ is suspended from one of the halves. The frequency of oscillation will now become:

$A$ block $P$ of mass $m$ is placed on a frictionless horizontal surface. Another block $Q$ of the same mass $m$ is kept on $P$ and connected to a wall with the help of a spring of spring constant $k$ as shown in the figure. $\mu_s$ is the coefficient of static friction between $P$ and $Q$. The blocks move together performing simple harmonic motion $(SHM)$ of amplitude $A$. The maximum value of the friction force between $P$ and $Q$ is
