The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the time period (T) of the oscillation of a mass attached to a spring and a wire, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the System We have a long metallic wire of length \(L\) tied to the ceiling, with a spring of spring constant \(K\) attached to the free end. A mass \(m\) is hanging from the spring. When the mass is pulled down and released, it will oscillate. ### Step 2: Identify the Forces When the mass is displaced, both the spring and the wire will experience tension. The total force acting on the mass when displaced by a distance \(x\) can be expressed as: \[ F = Kx + F_{\text{wire}} \] where \(F_{\text{wire}}\) is the force due to the extension of the wire. ### Step 3: Calculate the Extension of the Wire The extension (\(\Delta L\)) of the wire can be calculated using Young's modulus (\(Y\)): \[ Y = \frac{F/A}{\Delta L/L} \] Rearranging gives: \[ F = \frac{Y A \Delta L}{L} \] Here, \(A\) is the cross-sectional area of the wire. ### Step 4: Relate Forces to Spring Constant The effective spring constant \(K'\) of the wire can be expressed as: \[ K' = \frac{Y A}{L} \] Thus, the total effective spring constant \(K_{\text{eq}}\) of the system (spring and wire) when combined in series is: \[ \frac{1}{K_{\text{eq}}} = \frac{1}{K} + \frac{1}{K'} \] Substituting \(K'\): \[ \frac{1}{K_{\text{eq}}} = \frac{1}{K} + \frac{L}{Y A} \] ### Step 5: Calculate the Time Period The time period \(T\) of a mass-spring system is given by: \[ T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{K_{\text{eq}}}} \] Substituting for \(K_{\text{eq}}\): \[ T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{\left(\frac{1}{K} + \frac{L}{Y A}\right)^{-1}}} \] ### Step 6: Simplify the Expression After simplification, we can express \(T\) as: \[ T = 2\pi \sqrt{m \left(\frac{K Y A}{K Y + L}\right)} \] ### Final Expression Thus, the time period \(T\) of the oscillation is: \[ T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m (K L + Y A)}{K Y A}} \]

To solve the problem of finding the time period (T) of the oscillation of a mass attached to a spring and a wire, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the System We have a long metallic wire of length \(L\) tied to the ceiling, with a spring of spring constant \(K\) attached to the free end.
