CDLL CO
1. Define the terms periodic motion and oscillatory motion. [1] [R] CO1

2. What are the characteristics of periodic functions? [1] [R] CO1

3. A particle executes SHM with a period of 0.02sec and amplitude [1] [R] CO1
10cm. Find its acceleration when it is 4cm away from its mean
position and also obtain the maximum velocity.
4. Is it necessary that all simple harmonic motions be periodic in nature [1] [U] CO1
and vice versa? Illustrate with examples.
5. Explain the motion of torsional pendulum. Derive an expression for [1] [R] CO1
the time period of it.
6. How can a pendulum be used to trace sinusoidal curve? [1] [U] CO1

7. Derive an equation for the time period of a physical pendulum and [1] [U] CO1
deduce the condition for the physical pendulum to become simple
pendulum from it.
8. A spring is stretched by 8cm by a force of 10N. Find the force [1] [U] CO1
constant. What will be the period of 4kg mass suspended by it?
9. Derive an equation for time period of spring-mass systems when springs[1] [Ap] CO1
are connected in parallel.
10. Define Torque. Show, using the definition, that the magnitude of the [1] [Ap] CO1
torque on physical pendulum is =mgr sinwith a neat diagram.
