$A$ mass $m_1$ connected to a horizontal spring performs $S.H.M.$ with amplitude $A$. While mass $m_1$ is passing through the mean position,another mass $m_2$ is placed on it so that both the masses move together with amplitude $A_1$. The ratio of $\frac{A_1}{A}$ is:

$A$ block $A$ of mass $1\, kg$ is connected to two identical springs of spring constant $800\, N/m$ and is placed on a smooth horizontal surface as shown in the figure. Initially,the springs are relaxed. Now,the block $A$ is slightly displaced to the left and released. The time period of oscillation of the system is

All the springs in figures $(a)$,$(b)$,and $(c)$ are identical,each having a force constant $K$. $A$ mass $m$ is attached to each system. If $T_a, T_b$,and $T_c$ are the time periods of oscillations of the three systems in figures $(a)$,$(b)$,and $(c)$ respectively,then:

When a body of mass $1.0 \,kg$ is suspended from a certain light spring hanging vertically, its length increases by $5 \,cm$. By suspending a $2.0 \,kg$ block to the spring and if the block is pulled through $10 \,cm$ and released, the maximum velocity in $m/s$ is: (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,m/s^2$)

$A$ bar of mass $m$ is suspended horizontally on two vertical springs of spring constant $k$ and $3k$. The bar bounces up and down while remaining horizontal. Find the time period of oscillation of the bar (Neglect mass of springs and friction everywhere).
