How does the period of oscillation depend on the mass of the block attached to the end of a spring?

  • A
    The period is independent of the mass.
  • B
    The period is directly proportional to the mass.
  • C
    The period is directly proportional to the square root of the mass.
  • D
    The period is inversely proportional to the square root of the mass.

Two identical springs of constant $k$ are connected in series and then in parallel. $A$ mass $m$ is suspended from them,the ratio of their frequencies of vertical oscillations will be

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 ratio of the time period of oscillation of the two $SHM$ is $\frac{T_b}{T_a} = \sqrt{x}$,where the value of $x$ is (Round off to the Nearest Integer).
