Physics - SHM Question with Solution | TestHub

A small block of mass $\mathrm{m}=0.5\mathrm{kg}$ is attached to two springs each of force constant $\mathrm{k}=10\mathrm{N}/\mathrm{m}$ as shown in figure. The block is executing SHM with amplitude $\mathrm{A}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{8}}\mathrm{m}$. When the block is at equilibrium position one of the spring breaks without changing momentum of block. New amplitude of oscillation is $\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{e}}}{4}\mathrm{m}$. Find the value of e .
