A light rod of length 100 cm is suspended from the ceiling, horizontally
by means of two vertical wires of equal length tied to its ends. One of the
wires is made of steel and its cross-section is 0·05 sq. cm and the other is
of brass of cross-sectio n 0· 1 sq. cm. Find the position along the rod at
which a weight may be hung to produce
(i) Equal stresses in both the wires,
(ii) Equal strain in both the wires.
Young's modulus of elasticity of brass and steel are 1 ·0 x 10 11 N/m 2 and
2·0 x 10 11 N/m 2 respectively . 15

What is damped harmonic oscillation ? Write the equation of motion and
obtain the general solution for this oscillation. Discuss the cases of dead
beat, critical damping and oscillatory motion based on the general
solution.
What would be the logarithmic decrement of the damped vibrating
system, if it has an initial amplitude 30 cm, which reduces to 3 cm after
20 complete oscillations ? 20
