Question
What do you understand by resonant oscillation ?

Answer

When a periodic force is applied on a body and the body frequency is equal to its natural periodicity, that is, if the frequency of thrust oscillations is equal to the natural periodicity of the body, then the oscillation amplitude will be maximum. Such oscillations are called resonant oscillations of the body. If sound is produced by oscillations then it will be of maximum intensity.

A monkey climbs up a slippery pole for 3 seconds and subsequently slips for 3 seconds. Its velocity at time t is given by v(t) = 2t(3 - t); 0 < t < 3 and v(t) = -(t - 3)(6 - t) for 3 < t < 6s in m/s. It repeats this cycle till it reaches the height of 20m.

A boy is standing on a platform which is free to rotate about its axis. The boy holds an open umbrella in his hand. The axis of the umbrella coincides with that of the platform. The moment of inertia of ''the platform plus the boy system'' is 3.0 × 10-3kg-m2 and that of the umbrella is 2.0 × 103kg-m2. The boy starts spinning the umbrella about the axis at an angular speed of 2.0rev/s with respect to himself. Find the angular velocity imparted to the platform.
