The upper end of the spring is fixed and a mass $m$ is attached to its lower end. When the mass is slightly pulled down and released,it oscillates with a time period of $3 \text{ s}$. If the mass $m$ is increased by $1 \text{ kg}$,the time period becomes $5 \text{ s}$. The value of $m$ is (mass of the spring is negligible).

  • A
    $\frac{3}{8} \text{ kg}$
  • B
    $\frac{5}{9} \text{ kg}$
  • C
    $\frac{8}{13} \text{ kg}$
  • D
    $\frac{9}{16} \text{ kg}$

$A$ mass $m$ is suspended from a spring of negligible mass and the system oscillates with a frequency $f_1$. The frequency of oscillations if a mass $9m$ is suspended from the same spring is $f_2$. The value of $\frac{f_1}{f_2}$ is . . . . . . .

$A$ body of mass $100 \ g$ is tied to a spring of spring constant $8 \ N/m$,while the other end of the spring is fixed. If the body moves in a circular path on a smooth horizontal surface with a constant angular speed of $8 \ rad/s$,then the ratio of the extension in the spring to its natural length will be: (in $:1$)

$A$ spring has a certain mass suspended from it and its period for vertical oscillations is $T_1$. The spring is now cut into two equal halves and the same mass is suspended from one of the halves. The period of vertical oscillations is now $T_2$. The ratio $T_1 / T_2$ is

Two springs of force constants $300 \, N/m$ (Spring $A$) and $400 \, N/m$ (Spring $B$) are joined together in series. The combination is compressed by $8.75 \, cm$. The ratio of energy stored in $A$ and $B$ is $\frac{E_A}{E_B}$. Then $\frac{E_A}{E_B}$ is equal to

On a smooth inclined plane,a block of mass $M$ is fixed to two rigid supports using two springs,as shown in the figure. If each spring has spring constant $k$,then the period of oscillation of the block is (Neglect the masses of the springs)
