A spring-block system, shown in figure, is oscillating on a frictionless horizontal surface with amplitude 4 cm and maximum velocity of the block is 8 m/s. When the block is at its extreme position, another identical block is gently placed over it and the two blocks start oscillating together without any relative motion between them. Then time period of oscillation of this composite block is

Detailed Solution
Initially, ω=km and Vmax=ωA=AkmAfter the block is placed, ω'=k2m =ω2New time period of oscillation T'=2πω'=2πω/2=22πω ⇒T'=2.2πVmax/A =22π800/4sec=π502sec
