A mass m is suspended from a spring of length l and force constant $K$. The frequency of vibration of the mass is ${f_1}$. The spring is cut into two equal parts and the same mass is suspended from one of the parts. The new frequency of vibration of mass is ${f_2}$. Which of the following relations between the frequencies is correct
  • A${f_1} = \sqrt 2 {f_2}$
  • B${f_1} = {f_2}$
  • C${f_1} =2 {f_2}$
  • D${f_2} = \sqrt 2 {f_1}$

    A block with mass $M$ is connected by a massless spring with stiffiess constant $k$ to a rigid wall and moves without friction on a horizontal surface. The block oscillates with small amplitude $A$ about an equilibrium position $x_0$. Consider two cases: ($i$) when the block is at $x_0$; and ($ii$) when the block is at $x=x_0+A$. In both the cases, a perticle with mass $m$ is placed on the mass $M$ ?

    ($A$) The amplitude of oscillation in the first case changes by a factor of $\sqrt{\frac{M}{m+M}}$, whereas in the second case it remains unchanged

    ($B$) The final time period of oscillation in both the cases is same

    ($C$) The total energy decreases in both the cases

    ($D$) The instantaneous speed at $x_0$ of the combined masses decreases in both the cases
