A block of mass m is connected to two springs of force constants k1 and k2 in 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 in the two cases, the block exhibits simple harmonic motion with periods:

A block of mass m rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface and is attached to two springs with spring constant  and . It is displaced to the right and released. Find an expression for the angular frequency of oscillation of the resulting simple harmonic motion.

I have followed the expert reviewed answer to this question, but Icannot figure out the correct answer, even following the stepsexactly.

A 3.00-kg block is connected to two ideal horizontal springs havingforce constants k1 = 24.0 N/cm and k2 = 19.0 N/cm (the figure ).The system is initially in equilibrium on a horizontal,frictionless surface. The block is now pushed 15.0 {\rm cm} to theright and released from rest.

What is the maximum compression of the first spring?

A block is connected between two springs on a frictionless, horizontally level track. The other end of each spring is respectively anchored to a vertical pin set at opposite ends of the track. If the spring constants are determined to be 3 N/m and 1.6 N/m, and the period of oscillation for the block when slightly displaced from equilibrium point is 0.6s, what is the mass of the block?
