Question

A solid cylinder of mass M and radius R is connected to spring of force constant k as shown in fig. Cylinder rolls without slipping on the horizontal  surface. Its time period of oscillation is  

Difficult
Solution

Total energy  12Mu21+K2R2+12Kx2=constant
12Mu21+12+12Kx2=constant
Mududt32+Kxdxdt=0
Mududt32+Kxu=0
3M2a+Kx=0
w=2k3M   T=2πw=2π3M2K
