SHMMedium
Question
A mass M, attached to a horizontal spring, executes S.H.M. with amplitude A1. When the mass M passes through its mean position then a smaller mass m is placed over it and both of them move together withamplitude A2. The ratio of
is :
is : Options
A.

B.

C.

D.

Solution
Energy of simple harmonic oscillator is constant.
⇒
M ϖ2A12 =
(m + M)ϖ2A22

∴
⇒
M ϖ2A12 =
(m + M)ϖ2A22
∴
