JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 13. oscillations

Two identical springs of spring constant \('2k'\) are attached to a block of mass \(m\) and to fixed support (see figure). When the mass is displaced from equilibrium position on either side, it executes simple harmonic motion. The time period of oscillations of this sytem is ...... .

  1. A \(2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{ m }{ k }}\)
  2. B \(\pi \sqrt{\frac{ m }{2 k }}\)
  3. C \(2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{ m }{2 k }}\)
  4. D \(\pi \sqrt{\frac{ m }{ k }}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\pi \sqrt{\frac{ m }{ k }}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For parallel combination \(k _{ eq }= k _{1}+ k _{2}\) \(k_{e q}=4 k\) \(T =2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{ m }{ k _{ eq }}}\)
