Two oscillating systems; a simple pendulum and a vertical spring-mass-system have same time period of motion on the surface of the Earth. If both are taken to the moon, then-

(a)
For simple pendulum: $T =2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{\ell}{ g }}$ As g will decrease on moon, time period will increase
For spring mass system : $T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$
It will not change and remains the same

If $A$ is the area of cross-section of a spring $L$ is its length $E$ is the Young's modulus of the material of the spring then time period and force constant of the spring will be respectively
A body executes simple harmonic motion. The potential energy $(P.E.)$, the kinetic energy $(K.E.)$ and total energy $(T.E.)$ are measured as a function of displacement $x$. Which of the following statements is true
The displacement of a particle executing periodic motion is given by :
$y = 4cos^2\,(t/2)sin\,(1000t)$
This expression may be considered to be a result of superposition of
The total energy of a particle executing $S.H.M.$ is $80 \,J$. What is the potential energy when the particle is at a distance of $\frac{3}{4}$ of amplitude from the mean position..... $J$
A particle starts with $S.H.M.$ from the mean position as shown in the figure. Its amplitude is $A$ and its time period is $T$. At one time, its speed is half that of the maximum speed. What is this displacement?
A simple pendulum of length $ l$ has a brass bob attached at its lower end. Its period is $T$. If a steel bob of same size, having density $ x$ times that of brass, replaces the brass bob and its length is changed so that period becomes $2T$, then new length is
This is the position time graph of a mass on spring. What can you say about the velocity and force at the instant indicated by dashed line ? (positive direction is to the right)
A simple pendulum has time period $T_1$. The point of suspension is now moved upward according to equation $y = k{t^2}$ where $k = 1\,m/se{c^2}$. If new time period is $T_2$ then ratio $\frac{{T_1^2}}{{T_2^2}}$ will be
