The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the new time period of the simple pendulum after the point of suspension is moved upward according to the given relation. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Initial Time Period**: The initial time period \( T \) of the pendulum is given as \( 2 \, \text{s} \). 2. **Understand the Relation of Vertical Displacement**: The vertical displacement of the point of suspension is given by the equation: \[ y = 6t - 3.75t^2 \] where \( y \) is in meters and \( t \) is in seconds. 3. **Calculate the Acceleration**: To find the effective acceleration due to gravity, we need to differentiate the displacement function \( y \) twice with respect to time \( t \). - First, find the velocity \( v \): \[ v = \frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(6t - 3.75t^2) = 6 - 7.5t \] - Next, find the acceleration \( a \): \[ a = \frac{d^2y}{dt^2} = \frac{d}{dt}(6 - 7.5t) = -7.5 \, \text{m/s}^2 \] 4. **Determine the Effective Gravity**: The effective acceleration due to gravity \( g' \) acting on the pendulum is the actual gravitational acceleration \( g \) minus the upward acceleration \( a \): \[ g' = g - |a| = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 - 7.5 \, \text{m/s}^2 = 2.5 \, \text{m/s}^2 \] 5. **Relate the New Time Period to the Old Time Period**: The time period \( T \) of a simple pendulum is given by the formula: \[ T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}} \] where \( L \) is the length of the pendulum. For the new time period \( T' \) with effective gravity \( g' \): \[ T' = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g'}} = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{2.5}} = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{\frac{g}{4}}} = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{4L}{g}} = 2 \times 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}} = 2T \] 6. **Calculate the New Time Period**: Since the initial time period \( T \) is \( 2 \, \text{s} \): \[ T' = 2 \times 2 = 4 \, \text{s} \] ### Conclusion: The new time period of the simple pendulum after the upward displacement is \( 4 \, \text{s} \).

To solve the problem, we need to determine the new time period of the simple pendulum after the point of suspension is moved upward according to the given relation. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Initial Time Period**: The initial time period \( T \) of the pendulum is given as \( 2 \, \text{s} \). 2. **Understand the Relation of Vertical Displacement**: ...
