Simple harmonic motion — UPSC CSE 2021 Physics PYQ

A mass m is suspended by two springs having force constants k_1 and k_2 as shown in the figure. The mass m is displaced vertically downward and then released. If at any instant t, the displacement of the mass m is x, then show that the motion of the mass is simple harmonic motion having frequency f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{1}{m}\left(\frac{k_1k_2}{k_1+k_2}\right)}
