time period is t0 , the correct relation is
A.
B.

D.
Correct Answer is Option (B)
The time period of a spring mass system as shown in figure 1 is given by , where k is the spring constant.
...(i)
and ...(ii)
Now, when they are connected in parallel as shown in figure 2(a), the system can be replaced
by a single spring of spring constant, keff = k1 + k2.
[Since mg = k1x + k2x = keffx]
...(iii)
From (i), ...(iv)
From (ii), ...(v)
From (ii), ...(vi)
Now (iv) + (v)
