C$Acceleration\,\,=-k (x+a )$
c Equation of $S.H.M. -$
$a=-\frac{d^{2} x}{d t^{2}}=-w^{2} x$
$w=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$
$-wherein$
$x=A \sin (w t+\delta)$
$a=-K x$
$ x =x+a$
where $ a=-K(x+a)$
In $ S.H.M $ acceleration is directly proportional to the displacement from the mean position
Also the acceleration is in the opposite direction of displacement

In the given figure, a body of mass $M$ is held between two massless springs, on a smooth inclined plane. The free ends of the springs are attached to firm supports. If each spring has spring constant $k,$ the frequency of oscillation of given body is :
A particle executes $S.H.M$ between $x =\, -A$ to $x =\, +A$ . The time taken for it in going from $0$ to $A/2$ is $T_1$ and from $A/2$ to $A$ is $T_2$. Then
A ring of diameter $2m$ oscillates as a compound pendulum about a horizontal axis passing through a point at its rim. It oscillates such that its centre move in a plane which is perpendicular to the plane of the ring. The equivalent length of the simple pendulum is .... $m$
The amplitude of a damped oscillator decreases to $0.9\,times$ its original magnitude in $5\,s.$ In another $10\,s$ it will decrease to $\alpha $ times its original magnitude, where $\alpha $ equals
A simple pendulum performs simple harmonic motion about $X = 0$ with an amplitude $A$ and time period $T$. The speed of the pendulum at $X = \frac{A}{2}$ will be
A particle at the end of a spring executes simple harmonic motion with a period ${t_1}$, while the corresponding period for another spring is ${t_2}$. If the period of oscillation with the two springs in series is $T$, then
The bob of a simple pendulum executes simple harmonic motion in water with a period $t$, while the period of oscillation of the bob is ${t_0}$ in air. Neglecting frictional force of water and given that the density of the bob is $(4/3) ×1000 kg/m^3$. What relationship between $t$ and ${t_0}$ is true
