Question

A mass m is suspended by means of two coiled springs which have the same length in unstretched condition fig.  Their force constants are k1 and k2
 

k1 and k2  respectively. When set into vertical vibrations, the period will be

Moderate
Solution

When the springs are connected in parallel, the spring constant  k=k1+k2 
 T=2πmk=2πmk1+k2
