Question 1
26 Apr 2025 S2
39A mass ' M ' attached to a horizontal spring executes S.H.M. of amplitude . When the mass M passes through its mean position, then a smaller mass ' ' is placed over it and both of them move together with amplitude . The ratio isTap an option to check your answer.
Question 2
