The period of oscillation of a mass M s...

The period of oscillation of a mass M suspended from a spring of negligible mass is T. If along with it another mass M is also suspended, the period of oscillation will now be :

A

`2T`

B

`sqrt(2)T`

C

`T`

D

`T//sqrt(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
(b) `T=2pi sqrt((m)/(K))` if `m.=2m.` `T.=sqrt(2)T`
Correct choice is (b).
`:.` Time period decreases.
Hence correct choice is (b).
