A block `(B)` is attached to two unstriched sprig `S_(1)` and S_(2) with spring constant `K` and `4K` , respectively (see fig 1) The other ends are atteched in identical support `M_(1)` and `M_(2)` not attached in the walls . The springs and supports have negligible mass . There is no friction anywhere . The block `B` is displaced toword wall `1` by a small distance `z` (figure (ii)) and released . THe block return and moves a maximum displacements `x` and `y` are musured with reoact to the equalibrum of the block `B` and the ratio `y//x` is

A

`4`

B

`2`

C

`1/2`

D

`1/4`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`1/2 kx^(2) = 1/2(4k)y^(2) rArr y/x = 1/2`
