A physical pendulum consists of a disk of radius R = 2 m, whose mass is homogeneously distributed and is equal to 6 kg, is suspended just at a point on its perimeter. The puck is displaced from its equilibrium position. until it forms an angle θ = π/16 with respect to the vertical and is then released. find: a) The period of the system. b) Make a graph of angular position v/s time where the amplitude, initial phase and system period.
A simple harmonic oscillator has a total energy of E = 12.188J. What is the potential energy when the displacement is 1/7th of the maximum?
a particle of mass m makes simple harmonic motion with force constant k around the equilibrium position x = 0. Calculate the valu of the amplitude and the phase constant if the initial conditions are x(0) = 0 and v(0) = -Vi (vi > 0). Draw x-t, v - t and a - t figures for one complete cycle of oscillations.
