A block \(P\) of mass \(m\) is placed on a frictionless horizontal surface. Another block \(Q\) of same mass is kept on \(P\) and connected to the wall with the help of a spring of spring constant \(k\) as shown in the figure. \(\mu_s\) is the coefficient of friction between \(P\) and \(Q\). The blocks move together performing SHM of amplitude \(A\). The maximum value of the friction force between \(P\) and \(Q\) will be:

         
1. \(kA\)
2. \(\frac{kA}{2}\)
3. zero
4. \(\mu_s mg\)

A body mass m is attached to the lower end of a spring whose upper end is fixed. The spring has neglible mass. When the mass m is slightly pulled down and released, it oscillates with a time period of 3s. When the mass m is increased by 1 kg, the time period of oscillations becomes 5s. The value of m in kg is-

(1) 34               

(2)43

The displacement of a particle along the \(x\text-\)axis is given by \(x= a\sin^2\omega t\). The motion of the particle corresponds to:
1.  simple harmonic motion of frequency \(\frac{\omega}{\pi}\).
2.  simple harmonic motion of frequency \(\frac{3\omega}{2\pi}\).
3.  non-simple harmonic motion.
4.  simple harmonic motion of frequency \(\frac{\omega}{2\pi}\).
