This is a multiple choice answer as classified in NCERT Exemplar

(d) For motion to be in SHM acceleration of the particle must be proportional to negative of displacement.

a - y , so y has to linear.

(b) y = sin3wt

= [3sinwt-4sin3wt]/4

dy/dt= [ d d t 3 s i n w t - d d t ( 4 s i n 3 w t ) ]/4

4dy/dt=3wcoswt-4 [3wcoswt]

4 * d 2 y d t 2 = - 3 w 2 s i n w t + 12 w s i n 3 w t

d 2 y d t 2 = - 3 w 2 s i n w t + 12 w 2 s i n 3 w t 4

d 2 y d t 2  is not proportional to y. hence it is not SHM.

This is a multiple choice answer as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Velocity =dy/dt= d d t 3 c o s π 4 - 2 w t

= 3 (-2w) [-sin ( π 4 - 2 w t )]

= 6wsin π 4 - 2 w t

Acceleration a = dv/dt= d d t 6 w s i n π 4 - 2 w t

= -4w2 [3cos ( π 4 - 2 w t )]

A = -4w2y hence acceleration is directly proportional to displacement so it follows SHM

w'= 2w

2 π T = 2 w

T'= 2 π / 2 w = π w

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

By considering the diagram

θ 1= θ o s i n ( w t + 1 )

θ 2= θ o s i n ? w t + 2

As it is clear given that amplitude time period being equal but phases being different. Now for first pendulum at any time t

θ 1= θ 2

So sin π 2 = sin(wt+ 1 )

wt+ 1 = π 2

where θ o=2o is the angular amplitude of first pendulum . for the second pendulum , the angular displacement is one degree , therefore θ 2= θ 0 2  and negative sign is taken to show for being left to mean position.

- θ o 2 = θ 0 s i n ( w t + θ 2 )

Sin(wt+ 2 )=-1/2

So (wt+ θ 2)=- π 6 o r 7 π 6

So by making their difference

(wt+ θ 2)-( w t + θ 1)=7 π 6 - π 2 =4 π 6

( θ 2- θ 1)= 1200

Consider the diagram of the spring block system. It is a SHM with amplitude of 5cm about the mean position

Spring constant k=50N/m

Mass =2kg

Angular frequency w= k w = 50 2 = 5 r a d / s

Y (t)= Asin (wt+ )

Y (0)=Asin (w * 0 + )

sin =1 = π 2

y (t)=Asin (wt+ π 2 ) = Acoswt

A=5cm w=5rad/s

Y=5sin5t

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

given potential energy associated with the field

U (x)=Uo (1-cos α x )

F=-dU (x)/dx

F=-d (Uo-Uocos α x )=-Uo α sin α x

F=-Uo α 2 x

F - x

Motion is SHM for small oscillatons

F=-mw2X

Mw2=Uo α 2

w2= U o α 2 m  , w= U o α 2 m

T= 2 π w = 2 π m U o α 2

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Let us assume that the required displacement be x

Potential energy of the simple harmonic oscillator =1/2 kx2

k= force constant=mw2

PE= ½ mw2x2

Maximum energy of oscillator

TE= ½ mw2A2

PE=1/2 TE

½ mw2x2= 1 2 [ 1 2 m w 2 A 2 ]

So x= A 2 2 = ± A 2

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

As we know displacement y=sinwt-coswt

= 2 1 2 s i n w t - 1 2 c o s w t

= 2 ( c o s π 4 s i n w t - s i n π 4 c o s w t )

= 2 s i n w t - π 4

To comparing with standard equation

Y= asin (wt+ )

So T=2 π /w

For calculation purpose, in this situation we will neglect gravity because it is constant throughout will not affect the net restoring force.

Let in the equilibrium position, the spring has extended by an amount xo

Let displacement by spring is and string be x .

But string is extensible so only spring will contribute in extension  x+x=2x

So net extension is 2x+xo

So force is F= 2T

T=kxo

F=2kxo

But when mass is lowered down further by x

F'=2T' but spring length is 2x+xo

F'=2k (2x+xo)

Restoring force on the system

Frestoring=- (F'-F)

So using above equations

Frestoring= [2k (2x+x
