A triangular of rigid wire frame 'AOB' is made, in which length of each wire is l and mass m. The whole system is suspended from point O and free to perform SHM about x-axis or about z-axis. When it performs SHM aboutx-axis its time period of oscillation is T_(1) and when it performs SHM about z-axis, its time-period of osciallation is T_(2), then choose the correct option.

Answer»

`T_(1) lt T_(2)`
`T_(1) gt T_(2)`
`T_(1) = T_(2)`
None

Solution :`T=2pisqrt((1)/(M_(sys)gd))`, `M_(sys)=3m`, `d=(lsqrt(3))/(2)xx(2)/(3)=(l)/(sqrt(3))`
CASE I : System is performing SHM about `x-`AXIS
`I_(X)=I_(AB)+I_(AO)+I_(BO)=(3ML^(2))/(4)+[(ml^(2))/(3)sin^(2)60^(@)]xx2=(5ml^(2))/(4)`
`T_(1)=2pisqrt((I_(x))/(M_(sys)gd))=2pisqrt(((5ml^(2))/(4)xxsqrt(3))/(3mxxgxxl))=2pisqrt((5sqrt(3)l)/(12g))`
Case II : System is performing SHM about `z-` axis
`I_(z)=I_(AB)+I_(AO)+I_(BO)=[(ml^(2))/(12)+m((sqrt(3)l)/(2))^(2)]+(ml^(2))/(3)+(ml^(2))/(3)=ml^(2)[(1)/(12)+(3)/(4)+(2)/(3)]`
`=ml^(2)[(1+9+8)/(12)]=(3ml^(2))/(2)`
`T_(2)=2pisqrt((I_(z))/(M_(sys)gd))=2pisqrt((3ml^(2)xxsqrt(3))/(2xx3mxxgxxl))=2pisqrt((sqrt(3)l)/(2g))`
