A mass of 2.0 kg is put on a flat pan attached to a vertical spring fixed on the ground as shown in the figure. The mass of the spring and the pan is negligible. When pressed slightly and released the mass executes a simple harmonic motion. The spring constant is 200 N/m. What should be the minimum amplitude of the motion, so that the mass gets detached from the pan ?(Take g =10m/s2 )

A hollow sphere filled with water forms the bob of a simple pendulum. A small hole at the bottom of the bob allows the water to slowly flow out as it is set into small oscillations and its period of oscillations is measured. The time period will:
Increase
Decrease
Remain constant
First increases , then decreases
The kinetic energy of a particle executing S.H.M. is 16 J when it is in its mean position. If the amplitude of oscillations is 25 cm and the mass of the particle is 5.12 kg, the time period of oscillations is:
A particle is executing S.H.M. with an amplitude of 4 cm and time period 12 seconds. The time taken by the particle in going 2 cm from the mean position is T1 seconds. The time taken from this displaced position to reach the extreme position on the same side is T2 seconds. Then T1 /T2 will be :
