$A$ mass $M$ is suspended from a light spring. An additional mass $m$ added displaces the spring further by a distance $x$. Now the combined mass will oscillate on the spring with period:

  • A
    $T = 2\pi \sqrt {\left( {mg/x(M + m)} \right)} $
  • B
    $T = 2\pi \sqrt {\left( {(M + m)x/mg} \right)} $
  • C
    $T = (\pi /2)\sqrt {\left( {mg/x(M + m)} \right)} $
  • D
    $T = 2\pi \sqrt {\left( {(M + m)/mgx} \right)} $
