A cylindrical block of mass $M$ and area of cross section $A$ is floating in a liquid of density $\rho$ and with its axis vertical. When depressed a little and released the block starts oscillating. The period of oscillation is $\_\_\_\_$

A spring of force constant $15 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}$ is cut into two pieces. If the ratio of their length is $1: 3$, then the force constant of smaller piece is $\_\_\_\_$ $\mathrm{N} / \mathrm{m}$.

A simple pendulum of string length 30 cm performs 20 oscillations in 10 s . The length of the string required for the pendulum to perform 40 oscillations in the same time duration is

$\_\_\_\_$ cm . [Assume that the mass of the pendulum remains same.]

Using a simple pendulum experiment $g$ is determind by measuring its time period $T$. Which of the following plots represent the correct relation between the pendulum length $L$ and time period $T$ ?
