A mass attached to a horizontal spring, executes
with a amplitude
When the mass
passes through its mean position then a smaller mass
is placed over it and both of them move together with amplitude
. The ratio of
is
As we learnt in
Time period of oscillation for spring mass system -
- wherein
m = mass of block
K = spring constant
From conservation of linear momentum
