How does the period of oscillation depend on the mass of the block attached to the end of a spring?

  • A
    The period is independent of the mass.
  • B
    The period is directly proportional to the mass.
  • C
    The period is directly proportional to the square root of the mass.
  • D
    The period is inversely proportional to the square root of the mass.

$A$ 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

If a spring has time period $T$,and is cut into $n$ equal parts,then the time period of each part will be

For the system given below,find the angular frequency of oscillation.

$A$ mass $0.9 \, kg$,attached to a horizontal spring,executes $SHM$ with an amplitude $A_{1}$. When this mass passes through its mean position,a smaller mass of $124 \, g$ is placed over it and both masses move together with amplitude $A_{2}$. If the ratio $\frac{A_{1}}{A_{2}}$ is $\frac{\alpha}{\alpha-1}$,then the value of $\alpha$ will be $......$

$A$ mass $m$ is suspended separately by two different springs of spring constant $K_1$ and $K_2$ giving the time periods $t_1$ and $t_2$ respectively. If the same mass $m$ is connected by both springs as shown in the figure,then the time period $t$ is given by the relation:
