When a mass $M$ is attached to a spring of force constant $k$,the spring stretches by $l$. If the mass oscillates with amplitude $l$,what will be the maximum potential energy stored in the spring?

  • A
    $\frac{kl}{2}$
  • B
    $2kl$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2}Mgl$
  • D
    $Mgl$

$A$ particle of mass $m$ is attached to four springs with spring constants $k, k, 2k$ and $2k$ as shown in the figure. Four springs are attached to the four corners of a square and a particle is placed at the center. If the particle is pushed slightly towards any side of the square and released, the period of oscillation will be

Two bodies $A$ and $B$ of equal mass are suspended from two separate massless springs of spring constants $K_1$ and $K_2$ respectively. The two bodies oscillate vertically such that their maximum velocities are equal. The ratio of the amplitude of $B$ to that of $A$ is

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 $= 10 \,m/s^2$)
