Physics - SHM Question with Solution | TestHub

A block $(B)$ is attached to two unstretched $S_1$ and $S_2$ with spring constants $k$ and $4k$, respectively (see figure I). The other ends are attached to identical supports $M_1$ and $M_2$ not attached to the walls. The springs and supports have negligible mass. There is no friction anywhere. The block $B$ is displaced towards wall 1 by a small distance $x$ (figure II) and released. The block returns and moves a maximum distance $y$ towards wall 2 . Displacements $x$ and $y$ are measured with respect to the equilibrium position of the block $B$. The ratio $\frac{y}{-1}$ is
