A block is placed on a horizontal plank. The plank is performing $SHM$ along a vertical line with amplitude of $40\,cm.$ The block just loses contact with the plank when the plank is momentarily at rest. Then :
  • Athe period of its oscillations is $2\pi /5 \,sec.$
  • B
    the block weights on the plank double its weight, when the plank is at one of the positions of momentary rest.
  • Cthe block weights $1.5$ times its weight on the plank halfway down from the mean position.
  • D
    all of the above

    A block of mass m, attached to a spring of spring constant $k$, oscillates on a smooth horizontal table. The other end of the spring is fixed to a wall. The block has a speed $v$ when the spring is at its natural length. Before coming to an instantaneous rest, if the block moves a distance $x$ from the mean position, then

    You are holding a shallow circular container of radius $R$, filled with water to a height $h ( h < < R )$. When yon walk with speed $v$, it is seen that water starts spilling over. This happens due to the resonance of the periodic impulse given to the container (due to walking) with the oscillation of the water in the container. If the time period of water oscillating in the container is inversely proportional to $\sqrt{ h }$, then $v$ is proportional to
