Two identical point masses P and Q, suspended from two separate massless springs of spring constants k₁ and k₂, respectively, oscillate vertically. If their maximum speeds A are the same, the ratio (A_Q/A_P) of the amplitude A_Q of mass Q to the amplitude A_P of mass P is :
Three identical heat-conducting rods are connected in series as shown in the figure. The rods on the sides have thermal conductivity 2K while that in the middle has thermal conductivity K. The left end of the combination is maintained at temperature 3T and the right end at T. The rods are thermally insulated from outside. In steady state, the temperature at the left junction is T₁ and that at the right junction is T₂. The ratio T₁/T₂ is
In an oscillating spring mass system, a spring is connected to a box filled with sand. As the box oscillates, sand leaks slowly out of the box vertically so that the average frequency ω (t) and average amplitude A(t) of the system change with time t.
