- Different types of motion contd.
- Next, let us take up the case $c^2<\frac{4 \beta}{1}$
- rxercises:
- (2) Show that the angular velocity $\frac{d y}{d t}$ must become zero and $y(t)$ must attain a maximum in some finite time to. Obviously then we would call $4 t_0$ as the period of the pendulum. Suppose not Then $y(t)$ must strictly increase and it cannot reach \% otherwise RHS of (4.13) would become negative. Thus $y(t)$ must have a finite limit a as $t \rightarrow \infty$. But then (4.13) says that $y^{\prime}(t)$ mhist have a limit as $t \rightarrow \infty$. prove that if $f(t)$ is a differentiable function over $[0, \infty)$ such that both $f(t)$ and $f^{\prime}(t)$ have finite limits as $t \rightarrow \infty$ then $f^{\prime}(t) \longrightarrow 0$ as $t \rightarrow \infty$. Use Lagrange's Mean Value Theorem on an interval $[T, T+1]$ and also explain geometrically what is going on Now, to Complete the exercise,
