You are holding a shallow circular container of radius $R$, filled with water to a height $h ( h < < R )$. When yon walk with speed $v$, it is seen that water starts spilling over. This happens due to the resonance of the periodic impulse given to the container (due to walking) with the oscillation of the water in the container. If the time period of water oscillating in the container is inversely proportional to $\sqrt{ h }$, then $v$ is proportional to
  • A$R$
  • B$\sqrt{R}$
  • C$1 / \sqrt{R}$
  • D$1 / R$

    An oscillator of mass $M$  is at rest in its equilibrium position in a potential $V\, = \,\frac{1}{2}\,k{(x - X)^2}.$ A particle of mass $m$  comes from right with speed $u$  and collides completely inelastically with $M$ and sticks to it . This process repeats every time the oscillator crosses its equilibrium position .The amplitude of oscillations after $13$  collisions is: $(M = 10,\, m = 5,\, u = 1,\, k = 1 ).$
