A ball of mass 'm' moving with a horizontal velocity 'v' strikes the bob of mass 'm' of a pendulum at rest. During this collision, the ball sticks with the bob of the pendulum. The height to which the combined mass raises is (g = acceleration due to gravity).

A ball of mass m moving horizontally at a speed v collides with the bob of a simple pendulum at rest. The mass of the bob is also m. If the collision is perfectly elastic and both balls sticks, the height to which the two balls rise after the collision will be given by:

What is the effect on the time period of a simple pendulum if the mass off the bob is doubled?

The period P of a simple pendulum is the time for one complete swing. How does P depend on the mass m of the bob, the length l of the string, and the acceleration due to gravity g?

A small ball of mass m moving with speed v collides elastically with a simple pendulum with bob of mass m at rest. The maximum height attained by the bob after collision is

The string of a pendulum is horizontal. The mass of the bob is m. Now the string is released. The tension in the string in the lowest position is -

State how does the time period of a simple pendulum depend on mass of bob.

What will be the effect on the time period of the pendulum if the mass of the bob is increased for the same length?

Suppose the amplitude of a simple pendulum having a bob of mass m is theta_0 . Find the tension in the string when the bob is at its extreme position.

A simple pendulum of length 'L' has mass 'M' and it oscillates freely with amplitude A, Energy is (g = acceleration due to gravity)
