Two light elastic strings each have one end attached to a particle B of mass 3 c kg, which rests on a smooth horizontal table.
The other ends of the strings are attached to the fixed points A and C, which are 8 metres apart.
ABC is a horizontal line.
String AB has a natural length of 4 metres and a stiffness of 5 c newtons per metre.
String BC has a natural length of 1 metre and a stiffness of c newtons per metre.
The particle is pulled a distance of metre from its equilibrium position towards A, and released from rest.
Show that the particle moves with simple harmonic motion.
