Oscillations · Question 8

As shown in the figure, a spring is kept in a stretched position with some extension by holding the masses 1 kg and 0.2 kg with a separation more than spring natural length and are released. Assuming the horizontal surface to be frictionless, the angular frequency (in SI unit) of the system is : [figure]

A block of mass 2 kg is attached to one end of a massless spring whose other end is fixed at a wall. The spring-mass system moves on a frictionless horizontal table. The spring's natural length is 2 m and spring constant is 200 N/m. The block is pushed such that the length of the spring becomes 1 m and then released. At distance x m (x < 2) from the wall, the speed of the block will be

1. 10 [1 - (2 - x)2 ] 12 m/s
2. 10 [1 - (2 - x)2 ] 32 m/s
3. 10 [1 - (2 - x)2 ] m/s
4. 10 [1 - (2 - x)2 ]2 m/s
