The mass $M$ shown in the figure oscillates in simple harmonic motion with amplitude $A$. The amplitude of the point $P$ is

The time period of a mass suspended from a spring is $T$. If the spring is cut into four equal parts and the same mass is suspended from one of the parts,then the new time period will be

When a particle of mass $m$ is attached to a vertical spring of spring constant $k$ and released,its motion is described by $y(t) = y_{0} \sin^{2} \omega t$,where $y$ is measured from the lower end of the unstretched spring. Then $\omega$ is

$A$ mass attached to a spring is free to oscillate,with angular velocity $\omega$,in a horizontal plane without friction or damping. It is pulled to a distance $x_{0}$ and pushed towards the centre with a velocity $v_{0}$ at time $t=0$. Determine the amplitude of the resulting oscillations in terms of the parameters $\omega, x_{0}$ and $v_{0}$. [Hint: Start with the equation $x=A \cos (\omega t+\theta)$ and note that the initial velocity is negative.]

$A$ block with mass $M$ is connected by a massless spring with stiffness constant $k$ to a rigid wall and moves without friction on a horizontal surface. The block oscillates with small amplitude $A$ about an equilibrium position $x_0$. Consider two cases: $(i)$ when the block is at $x_0$; and $(ii)$ when the block is at $x = x_0 + A$. In both cases, a particle with mass $m$ is placed on the mass $M$. Which of the following statements are correct?

$A$ block of mass $1 \; kg$ is fastened to a spring with a spring constant of $50 \; N m^{-1}$. The block is pulled to a distance $x = 10 \; cm$ from its equilibrium position at $x = 0$ on a frictionless surface and released from rest at $t = 0$. Calculate the kinetic,potential,and total energies of the block when it is $5 \; cm$ away from the mean position.
