A partricle is executing a simple harmonic motion. Its maximum acceleration is α and maximum velocity is β. Then, its time period of vibration will be
For a particle executing SHM, we have maximum acceleration,
α=Aω2 ...(i)
Where, A is max. amplitude and ω is angular velocity of a particle
Max. velocity,β=Aω ...(ii)
Dividing Eq. (i) by Eq. (ii), we get
α/β=Aω2/Aω
=>α/β=ω=2π/T
i.e. T=2πβ/α
Thus,its time period of vibration, T=2πβ/α
The damping force on an oscillator is directly proportional to the velocity.The units of the constant of proportionality are
Given,
Damping force velocity
Unit of k =
The displacement of a particle along the x axis is given by The motion of the particle corresponds to
Answer given is correct
We have reduced the question to a single function
So, T= and f=
The period of oscillation of a mass M suspended from a spring of negligible mass is T. If along with it another mass M is also suspended, the period of oscillation will now be
Time period of spring pendulum, T=
If now mass in doubled
A simple pendulum performs simple harmonic motion about x=0 with an amplitude a and time period T. The speed of the pendulum at will be -
Which one of the following equations of motion represents simple harmonic motion?
Acceleration
Here, y=x+a
acceleration =-k(x+a)
Two simple harmonic motions of angular frequency 100 and 1000 rad have the same displacement amplitude. The ratio of their maximum acceleration is -
Acceleration of simple harmonic motion is
or (as A remains same)
or
A point performs simple harmonic oscillation of period T and the equation of motion is given by x= a sin .After the elapse of what fraction of the time period the velocity of the point will be equal to half to its maximum velocity?
Velocity is the time derivation of displacement. Writing the given equation of a point performing SHM
x= a sin ..(i)
Differentiating Eq. (i),w.r.t. time, we obtain
v=
It is given that v=,so that
Thus, at velocity of the point will be equal to half of its maximum velocity.
A S.H.M. has amplitude ‘a’ and time period T. The maximum velocity will be -
