(d) Function of wrist watch depends upon spring action so it is not effected by gravity but pendulum clock has time period, $T = 2\pi \sqrt {\frac{l}{g}} $. During free fall effective acceleration becomes zero, so time period comes out to be infinity i.e. the clock stops.

Two particles execute $SHM$ of same amplitude of $20\, cm$ with same period along the same line about the same equilibrium position. The maximum distance between the two is $20\, cm.$ Their phase difference in radians is
A particle of mass m is attached to a spring (of spring constant k) and has a natural angular frequency ${\omega _0}$ - An external force $F (t)$ proportional to $\cos \omega \,t((\omega \ne {\omega _0})$ is applied to the oscillator. The time displacement of the oscillator will be proportional to
A pendulum is suspended in a lift and its period of oscillation when the lift is stationary is $T_0$. What must be the acceleration of the lift for the period of oscillation of the pendulum to be $T_0/2$ ?
The period of a simple pendulum, whose bob is a hollow metallic sphere, is $T$.The period is $T_1$ when the bob is filled with sand, $T_2$ when it is filled with mercury and $T_3$ when it is half filled with mercury. Which of the following is true
