A block of mass 500 g is connected to a spring of spring constant k  312.5 N / m on a frictionless table. The spring is held firmly at the other end. The block is pulled a distance of 5 cm and then released to make SHM. Calculate the time period of its oscillations

A

2.0 s

B

1.75 s

C

0.5 s

D

0.25 s

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`T=2pisqrt(m/k)`
`=2pisqrt((500xx10^(-3))/(312.5))`
`=0.25 ` sec.
