$\mathrm{T}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{I}}{\mathrm{mgl}}}=\sqrt{\frac{3 \mathrm{mr}^{2}}{2 \mathrm{mgr}}}$

or $T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{3 r}{2 m}}$

or $2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{\mathrm{g}}}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{3 \mathrm{r}}{2 \mathrm{g}}}$

$\therefore \quad l=\frac{3}{2} \mathrm{r}=\frac{3}{2} \times 1=1.5 \mathrm{m}$

    A mass $m =100\, gms$ is attached at the end of a light spring which oscillates on a frictionless horizontal table with an amplitude equal to $0.16$ metre and time period equal to $2 \,sec$. Initially the mass is released from rest at $t = 0$ and displacement $x = - 0.16$ metre. The expression for the displacement of the mass at any time $t$ is

    A small block is connected to one end of a massless spring of un-stretched length $4.9 \ m$. The other end of the spring (see the figure) is fixed. The system lies on a horizontal frictionless surface. The block is stretched by $0.2$ $m$ and released from rest at $t =0$. It then executes simple harmonic motion with angular frequency $\omega=\frac{\pi}{3} \ rad / s$.

    Simultaneously at $t=0$, a small pebble is projected with speed $v$ from point $P$ at an angle of $45^{\circ}$ as shown in the figure. Point $P$ is at a horizontal distance of $10 \ cm$ from $O$. If the pebble hits the block at $t=1 \ s$, the value of $v$ is (take $g =10 \ m / s ^2$ )
