A mass M attached to a horizontal spring...

A mass `M` attached to a horizontal spring executes `SHM` with an amplitude `A_(1)`. When mass `M` passes through its mean position a smaller mass `m` is placed over it and both of them move togther with amplitude `A_(2)`. Ratio of `((A_(1))/(A_(2)))` is:

A

`[(m_1)/(m_1+m_2)]^(1/2)`

B

`[(m_1+m_2)/(m_1)]^(1/2)`

C

`[(m_2)/(m_1+m_2)]^(1/2)`

D

`[(m_1+m_2)/(m_2)]^(1/2)`
