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
A$T = T_1 = T_2 > T_3$
B$T_1 = T_1 = T_3 > T$
C$T > T_3 > T_1 = T_2$
D$T = T_1 = T_2 < T_3$

D$T = T_1 = T_2 < T_3$
d (d) Time period of pendulum doesn’t depends upon mass but it depends upon length (distance between point of suspension and centre of mass).
In first three cases length are same so $T = {T_1} = {T_2}$ but in last case centre of mass lowers which in turn increases the length. So in this case time period will be more than the other cases.

Two particles $P$ and $Q$ describe $SHM$ of same amplitude $a$ , frequency $v$ along the same straight line. The maximum distance between the two particles is $a \sqrt 2$ . The initial phase difference between the particles is
A weightless spring which has a force constant oscillates with frequency $n$ when a mass $m$ is suspended from it. The spring is cut into two equal halves and a mass $2m $ is suspended from it. The frequency of oscillation will now become
A plank with a small block on top of it is under going vertical $SHM$ . Its period is $2\ sec$ . The minimum amplitude at which the block will separate from plank is
A particle of mass $200 \,gm$ executes $S.H.M.$ The restoring force is provided by a spring of force constant $80 \,N / m$. The time period of oscillations is .... $\sec$
A particle is executing simple harmonic motion with a time period $T.$ At time $t = 0$, it is at its position of equilibrium. The kinetic energy-time graph of the particle will look like
The displacement of a particle undergoing $SHM$ of time period $T$ is given by $x(t) = x_m\,cos\, (\omega t + \phi )$. The particle is at $x = -x_m$ at time $t = 0$. The particle is at $x = + x_m$ when
A particle is executing $SHM$ of amplitude $A,$ about the mean position $x = 0.$ Which of the following cannot be a possible phase difference between the positions of the particle at $x = +\,A/2$ and $x = - A/\sqrt {2} .$
