Time period for half part $T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{1}{g}}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{1}{g}}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{1}{g}}=\frac{2 \pi}{g}=2 \mathrm{sec}$

So $2^{\circ}$ part will be covered in a time $t=\frac{T}{2}=1$ sec

For the half $1^{\circ}$ part

$\theta=\theta_{2} \sin (\omega t)$

$1^{\circ}=2^{\circ} \sin \left(\frac{2 \pi}{T} \times t\right) \Rightarrow \frac{t}{2}=\sin \left(\frac{2 \pi}{T} \times t\right)$

$\Rightarrow \frac{\pi}{6}=\pi \times 1 \Rightarrow t=1 / 6 \mathrm{sec}$

Total time $\Rightarrow \frac{T}{2}+2 t$

$\Rightarrow 1+2 \times \frac{1}{6}=1+\frac{1}{3}=\frac{4}{3} \mathrm{sec}$

    In figure $(A),$ mass ' $2 m$ ' is fixed on mass ' $m$ ' which is attached to two springs of spring constant $k$. In figure $(B),$ mass ' $m$ ' is attached to two spring of spring constant ' $k$ ' and ' $2 k$ '. If mass ' $m$ ' in $(A)$ and $(B)$ are displaced by distance ' $x$ ' horizontally and then released, then time period $T_{1}$ and $T_{2}$ corresponding to $(A)$ and $(B)$ respectively follow the relation.
