A rectangular plate of sides a and b is suspended fropm a ceilling by two parallel strings of length L each figure. The separation between the strings is d. The plate is displaced slightly in its plane keeping the strings tight. Show that it will execute harmonic motion. Find the time period. |
Answer» Correct Answer - B Here we have to consider oscillation of centre of mass. Driving force, F=mg sin theta` Acceleration =a=s/m=gsintheta` `:. A=gtheta=g(m/L)` [wehre g and L and const]. `:. A alpha x ` So the motion is simple Harmonic. `Time period `t=2pisqrt(displacement/Acceleration)` `=2pi sqrt(x/(gx/L))=2pi sqrt(L/g)` |
