Two masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ are suspended together by a massless spring of constant $k$. When the masses are in equilibrium,$m_1$ is removed without disturbing the system; the amplitude of vibration is

  • A
    $m_1g / k$
  • B
    $m_2g / k$
  • C
    $\frac{(m_1 + m_2)g}{k}$
  • D
    $\frac{(m_2 - m_1)g}{k}$

As shown in the figure,two blocks of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ are connected to a spring of force constant $k$. The blocks are slightly displaced in opposite directions to $x_1$ and $x_2$ distances and released. If the system executes simple harmonic motion,then the angular frequency of oscillation of the system $(\omega)$ is:

When a mass $m$ is connected individually with two springs $S_1$ and $S_2$,the oscillation frequencies are $n_1$ and $n_2$. If the mass $m$ is attached to the springs as shown in the figure,the oscillation frequency would be
