Three blocks of masses $700 \,g$,$500 \,g$,and $400 \,g$ are suspended at the end of a spring as shown in the figure and are in equilibrium. When the $700 \,g$ block is removed,the system has a period of oscillation of $3 \,s$. If both $700 \,g$ and $500 \,g$ blocks are removed,the period of oscillation becomes

  • A
    $1 \,s$
  • B
    $2 \,s$
  • C
    $3 \,s$
  • D
    $\sqrt{\frac{12}{5}} \,s$

$A$ mass attached to a spring is free to oscillate,with angular velocity $\omega$,in a horizontal plane without friction or damping. It is pulled to a distance $x_{0}$ and pushed towards the centre with a velocity $v_{0}$ at time $t=0$. Determine the amplitude of the resulting oscillations in terms of the parameters $\omega, x_{0}$ and $v_{0}$. [Hint: Start with the equation $x=A \cos (\omega t+\theta)$ and note that the initial velocity is negative.]

If the period of oscillation of mass $m$ suspended from a spring is $2 \, s$,then the period of mass $4m$ will be .... $s$.
