As shown in the figure, two blocks of masses m₁ and m ₂ are connected to a spring of force constant k . The blocks are slightly displaced in opposite directions to x ₁ , x₂ distances and released. If the system executes simple harmonic motion, then the frequency of oscillation of the system ( ) is
Options
- A( 1 m₁ + 1 m₂ ) k^2
- B( 1 m₁ + 1 m₂ ) k^2
- C( 1 m₁ + 1 m₂ )
- D( 1 m₁ + 1 m₂ ) k
Correct answer
D. ( 1 m₁ + 1 m₂ ) k
Step-by-step solution
= m₁ m₂ m₁+m₂ Frequency of oscillation is W = k = k ( ~m ₁ ~m ₂ ~m ₁+ m ₂ ) = ( 1 ~m ₁ + 1 ~m ₂ ) k
