    Two particles A and B of equal masses are suspended from two massless springs of spring constants \[{{k}_{1}}\] and \[{{k}_{2}}\], respectively. If the   maximum   velocities,   during oscillations are equal, the ratio of amplitudes of A and B is     AIEEE  Solved  Paper-2003

    A) \[\sqrt{{{k}_{1}}/{{k}_{2}}}\]         

    B)                       \[{{k}_{1}}/{{k}_{2}}\]                   

    C) \[\sqrt{{{k}_{2}}/{{k}_{1}}}\]                      

    D) \[{{k}_{2}}/{{k}_{1}}\] \[\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    The maximum velocity, \[{{v}_{\max }}=a\omega =a\frac{2\pi }{T}\]                                                     \[=\frac{2\pi a}{2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}}=a\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}\] where, A is amplitude and T is time period. Hence,      \[\frac{{{v}_{{{\max }_{1}}}}}{{{v}_{{{\max }_{2}}}}}=\frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}}\sqrt{\frac{{{k}_{1}}}{{{k}_{2}}}}\] \[\because \]         \[{{v}_{{{\max }_{1}}}}={{v}_{{{\max }_{2}}}}\]                   (given)                 \[\frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}}=\sqrt{\frac{{{k}_{2}}}{{{k}_{1}}}}\]
