19

Assume that there's no damping.

**Problem 19:**  
Two objects suspended from identical springs are set into motion. The period of one object is twice the period of the other. How are the weights of the two objects related?

**Problem 20:**  
Two objects suspended from identical springs are set into motion. The weight of one object is twice the weight of the other. How are the periods of the resulting motions related?

**Problem 21:**  
Two identical objects suspended from different springs are set into motion. The period of one motion is 3 times the period of the other. How are the two spring constants related?
