The period of a simple pendulum measured inside a stationary lift is found to be $T$. If the lift starts accelerating upwards with acceleration of $g/3,$ then the time period of the pendulum is
$\frac{T}{{\sqrt 3 }}$
$\frac{T}{3}$
$\frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{2}T$
$\sqrt 3 \,T$
The length of a seconds pendulum at a height $h=2 R$ from earth surface will be.(Given: $R =$ Radius of earth and acceleration due to gravity at the surface of earth $g =\pi^{2}\,m / s ^{-2}$ )
A simple pendulum is attached to a block which slides without friction down an inclined plane $A B C$ having an angle of inclination $\alpha$ as shown below. While the block is sliding down the pendulum oscillates in such a way that at its mean position the direction of the string is
The graph in figure represents
Two simple pendulums of length $0.5\, m$ and $2.0\, m$ respectively are given small linear displacement in one direction at the same time. They will again be in the phase when the pendulum of shorter length has completed .... oscillations.
Two masses, both equal to $100\, g$, are suspended at the ends of identical light strings of length $\lambda = 1.0\, m$, attached to the same point on the ceiling (see figure). At time $t = 0$, they are simultaneously released from rest, one at angle $\theta_1 = 1^o$, the other at angle $\theta_2 = 2^o$ from the vertical. The masses will collide
