Abody performs simple harmonic oscillations along the straight line $ABCDE$ with $C$ as the midpoint of $AE.$ Its kinetic energies at $B$ and $D$ are each one fourth of its maximum value. If $AE = 2R,$ the distance between $B$ and $D$ is
A$\frac{\sqrt{3} R}{2}$
B$\frac{R}{\sqrt{2}}$
C$\sqrt{3} R$
D$\sqrt{2} R$

C$\sqrt{3} R$
c $\frac{1}{2} k\left(A^{2}-x^{2}\right)=\frac{1}{4}\left(\frac{1}{2} k A^{2}\right)$
$\therefore x=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} A$
$\therefore C D=C B=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} R$
or $B D=2(C D)$
or $2(C B)=\sqrt{3} R$

Two masses ${m_1}$ and ${m_2}$ are suspended together by a massless spring of constant k. When the masses are in equilibrium, ${m_1}$ is removed without disturbing the system. Then the angular frequency of oscillation of ${m_2}$ is
A mass $m$ is suspended by means of two coiled spring which have the same length in unstretched condition as in figure. Their force constant are $k_1$ and $k_2$ respectively. When set into vertical vibrations, the period will be
A particle free to move along the $x-$axis has potential energy given by $U(x) = k[1 - \exp {( - x)^2}]$ for $ - \infty \le x \le + \infty $, where k is a positive constant of appropriate dimensions. Then
The metallic bob of a simple pendulum has the relative density $\rho$. The time period of this pendulum is $T$. If the metallic bob is immersed in water, then the new time period is given by
The bob of a simple pendulum executes simple harmonic motion in water with a period $t$, while the period of oscillation of the bob is ${t_0}$ in air. Neglecting frictional force of water and given that the density of the bob is $(4/3) ×1000 kg/m^3$. What relationship between $t$ and ${t_0}$ is true
The frequency of oscillations of a mass $m$ connected horizontally by a spring of spring constant $k$ is $4 Hz$. When the spring is replaced by two identical spring as shown in figure. Then the effective frequency is,
A particle of mass $1\, {kg}$ is hanging from a spring of force constant $100\, {Nm}^{-1 .}$ The mass is pulled slightly downward and released so that it executes free simple harmonic motion with time period ${T}$. The time when the kinetic energy and potential energy of the system will become equal, is $\frac{{T}}{{x}}$. The value of ${x}$ is ..... .
A spring is stretched by $5 \,\mathrm{~cm}$ by a force $10 \,\mathrm{~N}$. The time period of the oscillations when a mass of $2 \,\mathrm{~kg}$ is suspended by it is :(in $s$)
