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

Let extensions in spring are ` x_(1) and x_(2)`
` k_(1) x_(1) = k_(2) x_(2) and x_(1) + x_(2) = A `
`x_(2) = (k_(1) x_(1))/( k_(2)) rArr x_(1) + (k_(1) x_(1))/( k_(2)) = A `
`rArr x_(1) = (k_(2) A)/( k_(1) + k_(2))`
