A block of mass m is connected to two springs of force constants k1 and k2 in the two ways as shown in the figure. In both cases, the block moves on a frictionless table after it is displaced from equilibrium and released. Show that the block exhibit simple harmonic motion with periods.

A block of mass M is on a frictionless surface as shown below. It is attached to a wall by
two springs with the same constant K. Initially the block is at rest and the springs unstretched. The block is pulled a distance A and then released. (a) What is the speed of
the block as it passes through equilibrium? (b) What is the angular frequency ω of the
motion? (c) If the two springs were replaced by one spring so that ω remains the same,
what would its spring constant have to be? (d) If the two springs were kept, what would
the mass have to be so that it has the same ω as a system comprised of a single block of
mass M and spring with stiffness K?
