TS EAMCET · Physics · Oscillations
A particle of mass is attached to four springs with spring constant and as shown in the figure. Four springs are attached to the four corners of a square and a particle is placed at the center. If the particle is pushed slightly towards any side of the square and released, the period of oscillation will be


- A
- B
- C
- D
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
when the mass is displaced in the upward direction then the forces acting ar as shown in the diagram, F1=-kx=F2 & F3=-2kx=F4 Referring to second diagram, FR=F1+F32+F2+F42=32kx But since the particle performing SHM, ∴ FR=mω2x ∴ mω2x=32kx ∴…
