[ANSWERS & SOLUTIONS]
1. Answer (1)
Let v0 be the velocity of C.O.M.
m 3 + 2m 6
So v 0 = = 5 m/s
3m
With respect to C.O.M. velocity of particles are shown in figure
Let d1, d2 be the initial distance of C.O.M. from mass m and 2m
So m1d1 = m2d2
md1 = 2md2
d1 = 2d2
We can think the given system as two spring of natural length d1 and d2 as shown in figure
k(d1 + d2) = k1d1 = k2d2
k(d1 + d2) = k1d1
d
k d1 + 1 = k1d1
2
3
k1 = k
2
and k2d2 = k(3d2)
k2 = 3k
m 2m
So time period of mass m, T1 = 2 = 2
3 3k
k

2m
Time period of mass 2m, T2 = 2
3k
After half time period velocity of m will become maximum and 2m will become minimum
2m
So t1 = t 2 =

4. Answer (1)
Let displacement of particle is x from their equilibrium position
d
sin =

d = xsin
So extension in the spring = 2d

Now FBD of particle

FBD of (2)

mg – kx
a2 =
m
Acceleration of (2) w.r.t. (1)
a21 = a2 – a1
mg – kx mg + kx –2k
a21 = – = x
m m m
So w.r.t. (1) motion of (2) is S.H.M.
As initial velocity of both particle is zero so
Amplitude of oscillation, A = (L – L0)
So, separation between two particle,
d = L0 + Asin(t + )
2k
Here, =
m
As at t = 0 particle is at extreme position
So =

2k
So d = L0 + (L – L0 )cos t
m
6. Answer (1, 2, 4)
FBD of particle w.r.t. car
Let 0 be the angle of string with vertical in equilibrium position
Let T be tension in the string at this location
So Tcos0 = mg
Tsin0 = ma
a
tan 0 =
g
and net force on particle other
than string force, F0 = (mg )2 + (ma )2
= m g 2 + a2
If we displace the particle by small amount from their equilibrium position then motion of particle will be
l
S.H.M. and time period of particle is given by, T .P. = 2
geff
F0
Here geff = = g 2 + a2

l
T.P. = 2
g + a2

g 2 + a2
Angular frequency, =

Now
Let t2 be time instant when particle will be at equilibrium position 2nd time
3T
t2 =

3 l
= 2
4 g + a2
2
3 l
t2 =
2 g 2 + a2
Let v1 be the speed of particle when string again become vertical first time
then v1 = aT + v P /C
Here v P /C velocity of particle w.r.t. car
For this location v P /C = 0
So v1 = aT
As velocity of car, vC = at
So speed of particle w.r.t. ground v p = | at + vP /C |
As | at | increases continuously
So option (3) is incorrect
