  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    The mean value of velocity vector projection average over $$3/8$$th of a period after the start is
    Solution
    $$x = A sin\  \omega t$$
    $$V = \dfrac {dx}{dt} = A\omega\ cos \omega t$$
    $$\dfrac {^\dfrac {3T}{8}_{0} \int V dt}{^\dfrac {3T}{8}_{0} \int dt} = \dfrac {\dfrac {A\omega}{\omega}\times [sin \omega t]^{\dfrac {3T}{8}}_{0}}{[t]^{\dfrac {3T}{8}}_{0}}$$

    $$\dfrac {A \times [Sin(\dfrac{2\pi}{T}\times\dfrac {3T}{84})-Sin 0]}{\dfrac{3T}{8}}$$
    $$= \dfrac {A \times \dfrac {1}{\sqrt 2}}{\dfrac {3T}{8}}$$
    $$= \dfrac {2\sqrt 2 A\omega}{3\pi}$$
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    The displacement of a particle along the x-axis is given by x = a $$sin^{2}$$t. The motion of the particle corresponds to
    Solution
    $$x=asin^{2}t$$
    $$x=\dfrac{a}{2}(1-cos2t)$$
    from the above equation
    $$\omega=2$$
    frequency$$=\dfrac{\omega}{2\pi}$$
    frequency=$$\dfrac{\omega}{\pi}$$
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Frequencies used in TV communications are in the range of
    Solution

  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    A particle performing $$SHM$$ is found at its equilibrium at $$t=1\ sec$$ and it is found to have a speed of $$0.25\ m/s$$ at $$t=2\:s$$. If the period of oscillation is $$6\ sec$$, calculate amplitude of oscillation.
    Solution
    Since a SHM can be represented by $$x=A\sin { \left( \omega t+\phi  \right)  } $$

    $$\Rightarrow x=A\sin { \left( \left( \dfrac { 2\pi  }{ T }  \right) t+\phi  \right)  } $$ ; $$T=6s$$

    so the equation becomes
    $$x=A\sin { \left( \dfrac { \pi t }{ 3 } +\phi  \right)  } $$

    We are given that at $$t=1s, x=0 $$; so we have
    $$0=A\sin { \left( \dfrac { \pi  }{ 3 } +\phi  \right)  } \\ \Rightarrow \left( \dfrac { \pi  }{ 3 } +\phi  \right) =0\\ \Rightarrow \phi =-\dfrac { \pi  }{ 3 } \\ \Rightarrow x=A\sin { \left( \dfrac { \pi t }{ 3 } -\dfrac { \pi  }{ 3 }  \right)  } \\ \Rightarrow v=\dfrac { dx }{ dt } =\dfrac { d }{ dt } \left( A\sin { \left( \dfrac { \pi t }{ 3 } -\dfrac { \pi  }{ 3 }  \right)  }  \right) =\dfrac { \pi A }{ 3 } \cos { \left( \dfrac { \pi t }{ 3 } -\dfrac { \pi  }{ 3 }  \right)  }   $$
    Now we are given that at $$t=2s, \left| v \right| =0.25m/s$$, so we have
    $$0.25=\left| \dfrac { \pi A }{ 3 } \cos { \left( \dfrac { 2\pi  }{ 3 } -\dfrac { \pi  }{ 3 }  \right)  }  \right| \\ \Rightarrow 0.25=\left| \dfrac { \pi A }{ 3 } \cos { \left( \dfrac { \pi  }{ 3 }  \right)  }  \right| \\ \Rightarrow 0.25=\dfrac { \pi A }{ 6 } \\ \Rightarrow A=\dfrac { 3 }{ 2\pi  } $$
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    The period of small oscillations is
    Solution
    For small oscillations about the positions of stable equilibrium, let $$\mathrm{x}=-\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{x}'$$ where $${\times }'< < a.$$ Then the equation of motion becomes

    $$m\frac{d^{2}{\times }'}{dt^{2}}=\frac{-C{\times }'(2a-{\times }')}{\left [ ({\times }'-a)^{2}+a^{2} \right ]^{2}}$$

    $$\simeq -\frac{C{\times }'}{2a^{3}}$$

    About x = - a : period T = $$\frac{2\pi }{\omega }=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{2ma^{3}}{C}}$$

  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    The equation of a simple harmonic wave is given by  $$y=3sin\frac{\pi }{2}(50t-x)$$ where x and y are in meters and t is in seconds. The ratio of maximum particle velocity to the wave velocity is:
    Solution
    $$v_{max}=a\omega$$
    $$v=n\lambda $$
    $$\dfrac{v_{max}}{v}=\dfrac{a\omega}{n\lambda }=\dfrac{a(2\pi n)}{n\lambda}=\dfrac{2\pi a}{\lambda } =\dfrac{2\pi a}{\dfrac{2\pi }{K}}$$
    $$=Ka=\dfrac{\pi }{2}\times 3=\dfrac{3\pi }{2}$$
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    A particle of mass m moves with the potential energy U shown above.The period of the motion when the particle has total energy E is

    Solution



    As seen from graph, we can infer that for $$x<0$$ particle is in SHM as in spring. and for $$x>0$$ particle is in influence of gravity i.e. thrown upwards with some initial velocity.  
    So we can divide the time period in two parts. first $$T_1$$ and second $$T_2$$
    $$T_1$$ is half of the time period of a full SHM i.e. $$T_1=\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}$$
    $$E=\dfrac{1}{2}m{v_{max}}^2 \\ \Rightarrow v_{max}=\sqrt{\dfrac{2E}{m}}$$
    and $$T_2$$ is the time during which the particle remains in air when it is thrown upwards with velocity $$v_{max}=\sqrt{\dfrac{2E}{m}}$$
    $$0=\sqrt{\dfrac{2E}{m}} t - \dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$$            Since $$s=ut - \dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$$
    $$\Rightarrow T_2={2\sqrt{2E/mg^2}}$$
    So total time time period $$T=\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}+{2\sqrt{\dfrac{2E}{mg^2}}}$$

  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    A particle is moving in a circular path with continuously increasing speed. Its motion is
    Solution
    Since it's speed is continuously increasing, it will not cover same distance in same time interval. there is no restoring force acting on it. there is no mean position. So it can not be periodic, oscillatory and SHM.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    The oscillators that can be described in terms of sine or cosine functions are called
    Solution
    In simple harmonic motion, displacement of a particle is directly proportional to restoring force.
    $$F \propto -x \Rightarrow F=-kx \Rightarrow m\dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}=-kx$$.
    The solution of the above equation can be given by
    $$x=c_1\cos(\omega t)+c_2\sin(\omega t) = A \sin (\omega t -\phi)$$, where
    $$A=\sqrt{c_1^2+c_2^2}$$, $$\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}$$ and $$\phi =\tan^{-1}(\dfrac{c_2}{c_1})$$
    $$c_1$$ and $$c_2$$ are constants and values can be determined from the initial boundary conditions.
    So simple harmonic motions can be described as sin or cosine functions.

    Ans: $$A$$


  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    The acceleration-displacement (a-x) graph of a particle executing simple harmonic motion is shown in the figure. Find the frequency of its oscillation.

    Solution
    Answer: 1
    For Simple Harmonic Motion, 
    $$a(t)=-\omega^2 x(t)$$
    Differentiate with respect to x.
    $$\frac{da}{dx}=-\omega^2\frac{dx}{dx}=-\omega^2$$
    From graph given the slope is $$-\frac{\beta}{\alpha}$$
    Therefore, $$\frac{da}{dx}=-\frac{\beta}{\alpha}$$
    $$\omega=\sqrt{\frac{\beta}{\alpha}}$$
    Finally, frequency of oscillation, $$f=\frac{\omega}{2\pi}=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{\beta}{\alpha}}$$
