Question 64
PHNAT2 marksNeeds review
Two 1 kg blocks are connected to two massless springs of spring constants 8 N.m
and 4 N.m
. The system is kept on a frictionless horizontal floor with one end of a spring attached to a wall (see figure below). They are performing oscillatory motion along the
-axis with the normal mode frequencies
and
(
). The ratio
(rounded off to two decimal places) is _____.
