$S p e e d o f l i g h t C = \frac{w}{k} = \frac{1.5 * 1 0^{11}}{0.5 * 1 0^{3}} = 3 * 1 0^{8} m / s$

So, E₀ = B₀ C

$E = I A$

$= 100 * 1 * 1 0^{- 4}$

$= 1 0^{- 2} W$

$E = n h \frac{c}{λ}$

$1 0^{- 2} = \overset{?}{n} * \frac{6.64 * 1 0^{- 34} * 3 * 1 0^{8}}{900 * 1 0^{- 9}}$

$\overset{?}{n} = \frac{1 0^{- 2} * 9 * 1 0^{- 7}}{6.64 * 1 0^{- 34} * 3 * 1 0^{8}}$

$\overset{?}{n} = 4.5 * 1 0^{16}$

$A = A o e^{- λ t}$

$\Rightarrow 2250 = 4250 e^{- λ t}$

$\Rightarrow λ * 10 * 0.434 = 0.274$

$\Rightarrow λ = \frac{0.274}{10 * 0.434} = 0.63 m i n^{- 1}$

Three masses M = 100kg, m₁ = 10kg and M₂ = 20kg are arranged in a system as shown in figure. All the surface are frictionless and strings are inextensible and weightless. The pulleys are also weightless and frictionless. A force F is applied on the system so that the mass m₂ moves upward with an acceleration of 2ms^-2. The value of F is:

(Take g = 10ms^-2)

Given Acceleration of m₂ is 2m/s²

(upward)

N = 20a T – m₂g = m₂a

T – 20g = 20a

T = 200 + 20 * 2

T = 240 N

T = m₁ a₁

240 = 10a₁

a₁ = 24 m/s²

$\Rightarrow T a + T a_{1} - T a_{2} = 0$

$a_{2} = 24 + 2 = 26 m / s^{2}$

F – T – N = Ma₂

F – 240 = 100 * 26 + 20 * 26

F = 3360 N

Is every oscillatory motion a simple harmonic motion?

Contributor-Level 10

No, only oscillations with a linear restoring force and sinusoidal motion are SHM. Non-linear oscillations, such as large pendulum swings, deviate from SHM.

What is the difference between oscillations and vibrations?

0 Follower 2 Views

Contributor-Level 10

Oscillations are larger, slower to-and-fro motions. Vibrations, on the other hand, are smaller, faster oscillations. Vibrations often occur in machines, strings, and structural components.

Can all periodic motions be oscillatory?

Contributor-Level 10

No, periodic motion isn't always oscillatory. It may not involve back-and-forth movement about an equilibrium point. Some known examples include circular motion in satellites or planets.
