$A$ clock is designed based on the oscillations of a spring-block system suspended vertically in the absence of air resistance. Assume it shows the correct time when a spring of stiffness $k$ and a block of mass $m$ are used. If the block is replaced by another block of mass $4m$, choose the correct option.

  • A
    The clock runs slow by $0.5 \text{ s}$ for every one second.
  • B
    The clock runs fast by $0.5 \text{ s}$ for every one second.
  • C
    The clock runs fast by $1 \text{ s}$ for every one second.
  • D
    The clock runs slow by $1 \text{ s}$ for every one second.

If a vertical mass-spring system is taken to the moon,what will happen to its time period?

If a spring has time period $T$,and is cut into $n$ equal parts,then the time period of each part will be

The frequency of oscillation of the spring-mass system shown in the figure is:

$A$ small mass $m$, attached to one end of a spring with a negligible mass and an unstretched length $L$, executes vertical oscillations with angular frequency $\omega_{0}$. When the mass is rotated with an angular speed $\omega$ by holding the other end of the spring at a fixed point, the mass moves uniformly in a circular path in a horizontal plane. Then the increase in length of the spring during the rotation is
