13.Oscillations
medium

Consider two identical springs each of spring constant $k$ and negligible mass compared to the mass $M$ as shown. Fig. $1$ shows one of them and Fig. $2$ shows their series combination. The ratios of time period of oscillation of the two $SHM$ is $\frac{ T _{ b }}{ T _{ a }}=\sqrt{ x },$ where value of $x$ is

Solution

$T _{ a }=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{ M }{ K }}$

$T _{ b }=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{ M }{ K / 2}}$

$\frac{ T _{ b }}{ T _{ a }}=\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{ x }$

$\Rightarrow x =2$
