Two springs,of force constants $k_1$ and $k_2$,are connected to a mass $m$ as shown. The frequency of oscillation of the mass is $f$. If both $k_1$ and $k_2$ are made four times their original values,the frequency of oscillation becomes

  • A
    $2f$
  • B
    $\frac{f}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{f}{4}$
  • D
    $4f$

Two bodies $P$ and $Q$ of equal mass are suspended from two separate massless springs of force constants $k_1$ and $k_2$ respectively. If the maximum velocities of them are equal during their motion,the ratio of the amplitude of $P$ to $Q$ is:

$A$ body of mass $m$ is attached to one end of a massless spring which is suspended vertically from a fixed point. The mass is held in hand,so that the spring is neither stretched nor compressed. Suddenly,the support of the hand is removed. The lowest position attained by the mass during oscillation is $4 \, cm$ below the point where it was held in hand.
