A mass m is suspended from a spring of length l and force constant $K$. The frequency of vibration of the mass is ${f_1}$. The spring is cut into two equal parts and the same mass is suspended from one of the parts. The new frequency of vibration of mass is ${f_2}$. Which of the following relations between the frequencies is correct

  • A

    ${f_1} = \sqrt 2 {f_2}$

  • B

    ${f_1} = {f_2}$

  • C

    ${f_1} =2 {f_2}$

  • D

    ${f_2} = \sqrt 2 {f_1}$

The drawing shows a top view of a frictionless horizontal surface, where there are two indentical springs with particles of mass $m_1$ and $m_2$ attached to them. Each spring has a spring constant of $1200\  N/m.$ The particles are pulled to the right and then released from the  positions shown in the drawing. How much time passes before the particles are again side by side for the first time if $m_1 = 3.0\  kg$ and $m_2 = 27 \,kg \,?$

A mass attached to a spring is free to oscillate, with angular velocity $\omega,$ in a hortzontal plane without friction or damping. It is pulled to a distance $x_{0}$ and pushed towards the centre with a velocity $v_{ o }$ at time $t=0 .$ Determine the amplitude of the resulting oscillations in terms of the parameters $\omega, x_{0}$ and $v_{ o } .$ [Hint: Start with the equation $x=a \cos (\omega t+\theta)$ and note that the initial velocity is negative.]
