In the given figure,two elastic rods $A$ and $B$ are rigidly joined to end supports. $A$ small mass $m$ is moving with velocity $v$ between the rods. All collisions are assumed to be elastic and the surface is frictionless. The time period of the small mass $m$ will be: [Here,an elastic rod may be treated as a spring of spring constant $k = \frac{YA}{L}$]
