A simple pendulum executing S.H.M. is falling freely along with the support. Then

A

its periodic time increases

B

its periodic time decreases

C

its periodic time does not change

D

it des not oscillate at all

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
For a freely falling body g=0.
`therefore T=2pi sqrt((l)/(g)) to oo therefore` It does not oscillate.

A simple pendulum executes S.H.M. in water with a time period T_(w) . When the bob executes S.H.M. in air, time period is T_(a) , IF the density of bob of simple pendulum is 5000/3 kg/ m^(3) and frictional force of water is neglected, then find the relation between T_(w) and T_(a) .

The length of simple pendulum executing SHM is increased by 69% The percentage increase in the time period of the pendulum is

Answer the following questions: (a) Time period of particle is S.H.M. depends on the force constant k and mass m of the particle : T=2pisqrt(m//k). A simple pendulum executes S.H.M. approximately. Why then is the time-period of a pendulum independent of the mass of the pendulum? (b) The motino of simple pendulum is approximatley simple harmonic for small angles of oscillation. For large angle of oscillation, a more involved analysis (beyond the scope of this book) shows that T is greater that 2pisqrt(l//g) . Think of a quanlitative argument to appreciate this result. (c) A man with a wrist watch on his hand falls from the top of tower. Does the watch give correct time during the free fall?
