The drawing shows an arrangement in which a block (mass = 18.2 kg) is held in position on a frictionless incline by a cord (length = 0.458 m). The mass per unit length of the cord is 1.53 x 10-² kg/m so the mass of the cord is negligible compared to the mass of the block. The cord is being vibrated at a frequency of 194 Hz (vibration source not shown in the drawing). What is the maximum value of the angle in degrees at which a standing wave pattern exists on the cord?
Simple harmonic motion
Simple harmonic motion is a type of periodic motion in which an object undergoes oscillatory motion. The restoring force exerted by the object exhibiting SHM is proportional to the displacement from the equilibrium position. The force is directed towards the mean position. We see many examples of SHM around us, common ones are the motion of a pendulum, spring and vibration of strings in musical instruments, and so on.
Simple Pendulum
A simple pendulum comprises a heavy mass (called bob) attached to one end of the weightless and flexible string.
Oscillation
In Physics, oscillation means a repetitive motion that happens in a variation with respect to time. There is usually a central value, where the object would be at rest. Additionally, there are two or more positions between which the repetitive motion takes place. In mathematics, oscillations can also be described as vibrations. The most common examples of oscillation that is seen in daily lives include the alternating current (AC) or the motion of a moving pendulum.
![Your answer is partially correct.
The drawing shows an arrangement in which a block (mass = 18.2 kg) is held in position on a frictionless incline by a cord (length=
0.458 m). The mass per unit length of the cord is 1.53 x 10-2 kg/m so the mass of the cord is negligible compared to the mass of the
block. The cord is being vibrated at a frequency of 194 Hz (vibration source not shown in the drawing). What is the maximum value of
the angle in degrees at which a standing wave pattern exists on the cord?
