Compound Pendulum

A compound pendulum consists of a rigid light rod having two spherical bobs of masses m_(1) and m_(2) at distance l_(1) and l_(2) from the centre of suspension. Find the time period of oscillations of the pendulum

Statement-1 : In compound pendulum, if suspension point and centre of oscillation are mutually inter change, then no change in time period is obtained. Statement-2 : Length of equivalent simple pendulum remains same in both the case.

A ring of diameter 2m oscillates as a compound pendulum about a horizontal axis passing through a point at its rim. It oscillates such that its centre move in a plane which is perpendicular to the plane of the ring. The equibvalent length of the simple pendulum is

The time period of a compound pendulum is given by T=2pisqrt((I)/(mgl)) {:(,"where","I=moment of inertia about the centre of the suspension,"),(,,"g=acceleration due to gravity , m=mass of the pendulam"),(,,"l=distance of the centre of the gravity from the centre of the suspension."):}

A rod is hinged at some point away from its center and is made to oscillate like a compound pendulum. It oscillates with an angular frequency omega . If the rod is now rotated so that its center of mass is vertically above the point of suspension and released from this position after giving a slight push. What is its angular velocity when it reaches the lowermost position :
