Two blocks of masses $m$ and $M$ $(M > m)$ are placed on a frictionless table as shown in the figure. $A$ massless spring with spring constant $k$ is attached to the lower block. If the system is slightly displaced and released,then ($\mu =$ coefficient of friction between the two blocks):
$(A)$ The time period of small oscillation of the two blocks is $T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{M + m}{k}}$
$(B)$ The acceleration of the blocks is $a = \frac{kx}{M + m}$ ($x =$ displacement of the blocks from the mean position)
$(C)$ The magnitude of the frictional force on the upper block is $f = \frac{mkx}{M + m}$
$(D)$ The maximum amplitude of the upper block,if it does not slip,is $A = \frac{\mu mg(M + m)}{mk} = \frac{\mu g(M + m)}{k}$ (Wait,let's re-evaluate: $f_{max} = \mu mg$. Since $f = ma = m \cdot \frac{kx}{M+m}$,at max amplitude $A$,$m \cdot \frac{kA}{M+m} = \mu mg \implies A = \frac{\mu g(M+m)}{k}$)
$(E)$ Maximum frictional force can be $\mu mg$.

$A$ body of mass $m$ is attached to the lower end of a spring whose upper end is fixed. The mass of the spring is negligible. When the mass $m$ is pulled down slightly and released,it oscillates with a time period of $3 \ s$. When the mass $m$ is increased by $1 \ kg$,the time period of oscillation becomes $5 \ s$. What is the value of $m$ in $kg$?

$A$ spring has a certain mass suspended from it and its period for vertical oscillations is $T_1$. The spring is now cut into two equal halves and the same mass is suspended from one of the halves. The period of vertical oscillations is now $T_2$. The ratio $T_1 / T_2$ is

One end of a spring of force constant $k$ is fixed to a vertical wall and the other to a block of mass $m$ resting on a smooth horizontal surface. There is another wall at a distance $x_0$ from the block. The spring is then compressed by $2 x_0$ and released. The time taken by the block to strike the other wall is
