One end of a rod of length $L$ is fixed to a point on the circumference of a wheel of radius $R$. The other end is sliding freely along a straight channel passing through the centre of the wheel as shown in the figure below. The wheel is rotating with a constant angular velocity $\omega$ about $O$. Taking $T=\frac{2 \pi}{\omega}$, the motion of the rod is
Asimple harmonic with a period of $T$
Bsimple harmonic with a period of $T / 2$
Cnot simple harmonic but periodic with a period of $T$
Dnot simple harmonic but periodic with a period of $T / 2$

A uniform cylinder of length $L$ and mass $M$ having cross-sectional area $A$ is suspended, with its length vertical, from a fixed point by a massless spring, such that it is half submerged in a liquid of density $\sigma $ at equilibrium position. When the cylinder is given a downward push and released, it starts oscillating vertically with a small amplitude. The time period $T$ of the oscillations of the cylinder will be
A ring is suspended from a point $S$ on its rim as shown in the figure. When displaced from equilibrium, it oscillates with time period of $1\,second.$ The radius of the ring is ..... $m$ (take $g = \pi ^2$ )
The length of the second pendulum on the surface of earth is $1\, m$. The length of seconds pendulum on the surface of moon, where g is 1/6th value of $g$ on the surface of earth, is
A $3\ kg$ sphere dropped through air has a terminal speed of $25\ m/s$. (Assume that the drag force is $-bv$.) Now suppose the sphere is attached to a spring of force constant $k = 300\ N/m$, and that it oscillates with an initial amplitude of $20\ cm$. What is the angular frequencu of its damped $SHM$? ..... $rad/s$
Starting from the mean position a body oscillates simple harmonically with a period of $2\,s.$ After what time will its kinetic energy be $75\%$ of the total energy ?
Springs of spring constants $K, 2K, 4K, 8K,$ ..... are connected in series. A mass $40\, gm$ is attached to the lower end of last spring and the system is allowed to vibrate. What is the time period of oscillation ..... $\sec$. (Given $K = 2\, N/cm$)
A mass $0.9\,kg$, attached to a horizontal spring, executes $SHM$ with an amplitude $A _{1}$. When this mass passes through its mean position, then a smaller mass of $124\,g$ is placed over it and both masses move together with amplitude $A _{2}$. If the ratio $\frac{ A _{1}}{ A _{2}}$ is $\frac{\alpha}{\alpha-1}$, then the value of $\alpha$ will be$......$
Figure shows the circular motion of a particle. The radius of the circle, the period, sense of revolution and the initial position are indicated on the figure. The simple harmonic motion of the $x-$ projection of the radius vector of the rotating particle $P$ is
