Simple hormonic motion
Question

A spring of spring constant K is cut into n equal parts, out of which r parts are placed in parallel and connected with mass m as shown in figure. The time period of oscillatory motion of mass m is

Moderate
Solution

K.l = k'×ln = constant

new spring constant for each part is K' = nK

Now r part are taken in parallel

so Keq = nrk

Time period = 2πmKeq = 2πmnrK
