    (a). w / 2π = 1/2π * (√k + ky/m).

    (b). Vi / (Vi + Aw sin wt) or Vi / (Vi - Aw sin wt).

    (c). 68.97 dB.

    Explanation:

    We are given that the two springs constant = k and ky respectively, mass = m.

    So, k which is the left hand spring is stretched to the right and ky which is the right hand spring is stretched to the left. Thus, we will have;

    Total force = - (k + ky) ∆x. Where ∆x = displacement.

    So, total force = displacement.

    Thus, mw^2 ∆x = (k + ky) ∆x.

    w^2 = (k + ky) / m.

    Therefore, the frequency,

    = w / 2π = 1/2π * (√k + ky/m).

    (b). In simple harmonic motion, the displacement, x (t) = A cos (wt).

    Therefore, the velocity = dx (t) / dt = - Aw sin wt.

    Hence, the frequency heard:

    = Vi / (Vi + Aw sin wt) or Vi / (Vi - Aw sin wt).

    (C). Minimum intensity = (4π * maximum intensity) / 4π * (2) ^2.

    = Maximum intensity / 4.

    Hence, the intensity level, y = 10 log I (min) / I (h).

    = 10 log (0.79 * 10^7).

    = 68.97 dB.
