. Two masses m1 and m2 are suspended together by a massless spring of spring constant k as shown in Fig. 2. When the masses are in equilibrium, m1 is removed without disturbing the system. Find the angular frequency and amplitude of oscillation. (5 marks)Figure 2

Answer»

If only mass m₂ is present the extension of spring l is given by m₂g=kl

⇒l= m₂g/k , where k=Spring constant

Now with m₁ and m₂ the extension be l ′ (m₁ +m₂ )g=kl ′

l ′ = (m₁ +m₂/k)g-m₂g/k

⇒ A = m₁g/k

Now, if m₂ is removed the angular frequency of oscillation ω= \(\sqrt{\frac{k}{m_2}}\) (This is same as the case of m₂ attach to spring)
