Q.
In figure $(A)$, mass ' $2\, m$ ' is fixed on mass ' $m$ ' which is attached to two springs of spring constant $k$. In figure $(B)$, mass ' $m$ ' is attached to two spring of spring constant ' $k$ ' and ' $2\, k$ '. If mass ' $m$ ' in $(A)$ and $(B)$ are displaced by distance ' $x$ ' horizontally and then released, then time period $T_1$ and $T_2$ corresponding to (A) and (B) respectively follow the relation.
Solution:
