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 man weighing $60\, kg$ stands on the horizontal platform of a spring balance. The platform starts executing simple harmonic motion of amplitude $0.1\, m$ and frequency $\frac{2}{\pi }Hz$. Which of the following statement is correct

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.

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 …. $\sec$   $(g = 10\,m/{s^2})$

A block of mass $m$ is suspended separately by two different springs have time period $t_1$ and $t_2$ . If same mass is connected to parallel combination of both springs, then its time period will be
