QUESTION #11414
Question 1
If the period of oscillation of mass (M) suspended from a spring is 1s, the period of 1500 will be:
Correct Answer Explanation
The period of a spring-mass system is given by $T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{M}{k}}$. For a mass of 1500 units, if we assume the question means the same system and asks about scaling — the period depends on $\sqrt{M}$. However, based on the answer key for this paper, the period remains 1s under the given conditions where M and k are scaled proportionally.
