Physics of Sound

  1. A mass m is suspended from a two coupled springs, connected in series. The force constant for springs are k1 and k2. The time period of the suspended mass will be ​​
    1. T = 2π
      m
      k1 - k2
    2. T = 2π
      mk1 k2
      k1 + k2
    3. T = 2π
      m
      k1 + k2
    4. T = 2π
      m(k1 + k2)
      k1 k2
Correct Option: D

The effective spring constant of two springs in series; K =
k1 k2
k1 + k2

Time period, T = 2π = 2π
m
m(k1 + k2)
Kk1 k2
