The mass `M` shown in the figure oscillates in simple harmnonic motion and amplitude `A`. The amplitude of the point `P` is

A

`(K_(1)A)/(K_(2))`

B

`(K_(2)A)/(K_(1))`

C

`(K_(1)A)/(K_(1) + K_(2))`

D

`(K_(2)A)/(K_(1) + K_(2))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
At max elongation, `x_(1) + x_(2) = A & k_(1) x_(1) = k_(2) x_(2)`
`x_(1) = (k_(2))/(k_(1) + k_(2))A` is the max longation of spring and hence amplitude of oscillation of point P
