Two spring of force constant \(k_{1}\) and \(k_{2}\) are configured as the figure given below

The angular frequency of this configuration is
- A \(\dfrac{k_{1}+k_{2}}{m}\)
- B \(\sqrt{\dfrac{k_{1}+k_{2}}{m}}\)
- C \(\sqrt{\dfrac{k_{1}}{k_{2} m}}\)
- D \(\dfrac{k_{2} m}{k_{1}}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(\sqrt{\dfrac{k_{1}+k_{2}}{m}}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In the given configuration, the block of mass \(m\) is connected to two springs with force constants \(k_{1}\) and \(k_{2}\) on either side. When the block is displaced by a small distance \(x\) from its equilibrium position, one spring is compressed by \(x\) and the other is…
