Oscillations - Result Question 38

43. A particle is executing a simple harmonic motion. Its maximum acceleration is a and maximum velocity is b.

[2015 RS]

Then its time period of vibration will be :

(a) αβ

(b) β2α

(c) 2πβα

(d) β2α2

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 43. (c)

Solution:

When they are connected in series

1k=16k+13k+12k

1k=66k

Force constant k=k

And when they are connected in parallel k=6k+3k+2k

k=11k

Then the ratios

kk=111 i.e., k:k=1:11

If a spring of force constant K is divided into n equal parts then spring constant of each part will become nk and if these n parts connected in parallel then keff =n2k.
