13.Oscillations
easy
A simple pendulum hangs from the ceiling of a car. If the car accelerates with a uniform acceleration, the frequency of the simple pendulum will
A
Increase
B
Decrease
C
Become infinite
D
Remain constant
Solution
(a) In this case frequency of oscillation is given by
$n = \frac{1}{{2\pi }}\sqrt {\frac{{\sqrt {{g^2} + {a^2}} }}{l}} $ where $a$ is the acceleration of car. If $ a$ increases then $n$ also increases.
