A block is released from point A as show...

A block is released from point `A` as shown in figure .All surfaces are smooth and there is no loss of mechnical energy anywhere. Find the time period of oscillation of block.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, C

As there is no loss of mechanical energy, the block rises upto the same height 'h' on other side also.
`AB = (h)/(sinalpha)' BC = (h)/(sinbeta)`
`a_(1) = g sin a`, `a_(2) = g sin beta`
`u_(A) = u_(C) = 0`
Using `t = sqrt((2s)/(a))`
(with `u = 0`)
:. Time period of oscillation,
`T = 2t_(AB) + 2t_(CB) = 2(t_(AB) + t_(CB))`
`= 2 [sqrt((2xx(h)/(sin alpha))/(gsin alpha)) + sqrt((2xx(h)/(sin beta))/(g sin beta))]`
`= 2 sqrt((2h)/(g))[cosec alpha + cosec beta]`
