A $1\,kg$ mass is attached to a spring of force constant $600\,N / m$ and rests on a smooth horizontal surface with other end of the spring tied to wall as shown in figure. A second mass of $0.5\,kg$ slides along the surface towards the first at $3\,m / s$. If the masses make a perfectly inelastic collision, then find amplitude and time period of oscillation of combined mass.

A particle of mass $m$ is performing linear simple harmonic motion. Its equilibrium is at $x = 0,$ force constant is $K$ and amplitude of $SHM$ is $A$. The maximum power supplied by the restoring force to the particle during $SHM$ will be

A mass $m = 1.0\,kg$ is put on a flat pan attached to a vertical spring fixed on the ground. The mass of the spring and the pan is negligible. When pressed slightly and released, the mass executes simple harmonic motion. The spring constant is $500\,N/m.$ What is the amplitude $A$ of the motion, so that the mass $m$ tends to get detached from the pan ? (Take $g = 10\,m/s^2$ ). The spring is stiff enough so that it does not get distorted during the motion.
