The amplitude of a particle executing $$SHM$$ is $$4\,cm.$$ At the mean position the speed of the particle is $$16\,cm/\sec.$$ The distance of the particle from the mean position at which the speed of the particle becomes $$8\sqrt 3 \,cm/s,$$ will be
At mean position velocity is maximum
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{i}}{\text{.e}}{\text{.,}}\,\,{v_{\max }} = \omega a \Rightarrow \omega = \frac{{{v_{\max }}}}{a} = \frac{{16}}{4} = 4 \cr
& \therefore v = \omega \sqrt {{a^2} - {y^2}} \Rightarrow 8\sqrt 3 = 4\sqrt {{4^2} - {y^2}} \cr
& \Rightarrow 192 = 16\left( {16 - {y^2}} \right) \Rightarrow 12 = 16 - {y^2} \cr
& \Rightarrow y = 2\,cm. \cr} $$

Part of a simple harmonic motion is graphed in the figure, where $$y$$ is the displacement from the mean position. The correct equation describing this $$S.H.M.$$ is
A
$$y = 4\cos \left( {0.6t} \right)$$
B
$$y = 2\sin \left( {\frac{{10}}{3}t - \frac{\pi }{2}} \right)$$
C
$$y = 4\sin \left( {\frac{{10}}{3}t + \frac{\pi }{2}} \right)$$
D
$$y = 2\cos \left( {\frac{{10}}{3}t + \frac{\pi }{2}} \right)$$
Two springs of force constants $${{k_1}}$$ and $${{k_1}}$$ are in parallel. Hence
$$k' = {k_1} + {k_1} = 2\,{k_1}$$
The third spring $${k_2}$$ is in series with spring of force constant $${k'}.$$
$$\therefore \frac{1}{k} = \left[ {\frac{1}{{2{k_1}}} + \frac{1}{{{k_2}}}} \right]\,\,{\text{or}}\,\,k = {\left[ {\frac{1}{{2{k_1}}} + \frac{1}{{{k_2}}}} \right]^{ - 1}}$$

A simple harmonic wave having an amplitude $$a$$ and time period $$T$$ is represented by the equation $$y = 5\sin \pi \left( {t + 4} \right)m.$$ Then the value of amplitude $$\left( a \right)$$ in $$\left( m \right)$$ and time period $$\left( T \right)$$ in second are
Let the spring constant of the original spring be $$k.$$
Then its time period $$T = 2\pi \sqrt {\frac{m}{k}} $$ where $$m$$ is the mass of oscillating body.
When the spring is cut into $$n$$ equal parts, the spring constant of one part becomes $$nk.$$ Therefore the new time period, $$T' = 2\pi \sqrt {\frac{m}{{nk}}} = \frac{T}{{\sqrt n }}$$

When a damped harmonic oscillator completes 100 oscillations, its amplitude is reduced to $$\frac{1}{3}$$ of its initial value. What will be its amplitude when it completes 200 oscillations ?
In case of damped vibration, amplitude at any instant $$t$$ is given by
$$a = {a_0}\,{e^{ - bt}}$$
where,
$${a_0} = $$ initial amplitude
$$b = $$ damping constant Case I
$$\eqalign{
& t = 100\,T\,\,{\text{and}}\,\,a = \frac{{{a_0}}}{3} \cr
& \therefore \frac{{{a_0}}}{3} = {a_0}\,{e^{ - b\left( {100\,T} \right)}} \cr
& \Rightarrow {e^{ - 100\,bT}} = \frac{1}{3} \cr} $$ Case II
$$\eqalign{
& t = 200\,T \cr
& a = {a_0}\,{e^{ - bt}} = {a_0}\,{e^{ - b\left( {200\,T} \right)}} \cr
& = {a_0}{\left( {{e^{ - 100\,bT}}} \right)^2} \cr
& = {a_0} \times {\left( {\frac{1}{3}} \right)^2} = \frac{{{a_0}}}{9} \cr} $$
Thus, after 200 oscillations, amplitude will become $$\frac{1}{9}$$ times.

A cylindrical block of wood (density $$ = 650\,kg\,{m^{ - 3}}$$ ), of base area $$30\,c{m^2}$$ and height $$54\,cm,$$ floats in a liquid of density $$900\,kg\,{m^{ - 3}}.$$ The block is depressed slightly and then released. The time period of the resulting oscillations of the block would be equal to that of a simple pendulum of length (nearly)
$$h$$ = Length of block immerged in water $$mg = {F_B}$$
$$\eqalign{
& \rho A\lg = {\rho _B}Ahg \cr
& 650 \times A \times 54 \times {10^{ - 2}}g = 900 \times A \times hg \cr
& \Rightarrow h = 0.39\,m = 39\,cm. \cr} $$
