On a smooth inclined plane, a body of mass $M$ is attached between two springs. The other ends of the springs are fixed to firm supports. If each spring has force constant $K$, the period of oscillation of the body (assuming the springs as massless) is

A spring is stretched by $0.20\, m$, when a mass of $0.50\, kg$ is suspended. When a mass of $0.25\, kg$ is suspended, then its period of oscillation will be .... $\sec$   $(g = 10\,m/{s^2})$

In the figure shown, there is friction between the blocks $P$ and $Q$ but the contact between the block $Q$ and lower surface is frictionless. Initially the block $Q$ with block $P$ over it lies at $x=0$, with spring at its natural length. The block $Q$ is pulled to right and then released. As the spring - blocks system undergoes $S.H.M.$ with amplitude $A$, the block $P$ tends to slip over $Q . P$ is more likely to slip at
