1.	A pendulum is hung in a very high building and is moving freely to and fro like a simple harmonic oscillator. If the acceleration of the bob is 16 ms^(-1) at a distance of 4 m from the mean position, then the time period is
Answer» 2s 1s `2pis` `pis` Solution :Acceleration, `a=16m//s^(2)` DISPLACEMENT, `y=4m` According to SHM, `a=omega^(2)y` `omega^(2)=(16)/(4)=4` `THEREFORE omega=2rad//s` TIME period, `T=(2PI)/(omega)=(2pi)/(2)` `T=pisec`
