Time period of a simple pendulum of length is and time period of a uniform rod of the same length pivoted about one end and oscillating in a vertical plane is . Amplitude of oscillations in both the cases is small. Then is:

Important Questions on Oscillations
The position co-ordinates of a particle moving in a coordinate system is given by
and
The speed of the particle is:



An ideal gas enclosed in a vertical cylindrical container supports a freely moving piston of mass . The piston and the cylinder have equal cross-sectional area . When the piston is in equilibrium, the volume of the gas is and its pressure is . The piston is slightly displaced from the equilibrium position and released. Assuming that the system is completely isolated from its surrounding, the piston executes a simple harmonic motion with frequency
[Assume the system is in space.]






A particle of mass and charge is lying at the mid-point of two stationary particles kept at a distance when each is carrying same charge . If the free charged particle is displaced from its equilibrium position through distance . The particle executes SHM. Its angular frequency of oscillation will be _______ (if )

A cone with half the density of water is floating in water as shown in figure. It is depressed down by a small distance and released. The frequency of simple harmonic oscillations of the cone is









The point moves with a uniform speed along the circumference of a circle of radius and covers in . The perpendicular projection from on the diameter represents the simple harmonic motion of . The restoration force per unit mass when touches will be :
