The time period of a bob performing simple harmonic motion in water...

The time period of a bob performing simple harmonic motion in water is 2s2s. If density of bob is 43×103kgm−3\dfrac{4}{3} \times {10}^{3}kgm^{- 3}, then time period of bob performing simple harmonic motion in air will be

Options

  1. A3s3s
  2. B4s4s
  3. C2s2s
  4. D1s1s

Correct answer

D. 1s1s

Step-by-step solution

Given, density of bob, ρ=43×103kgm−3ρ = \dfrac{4}{3} \times {10}^{3}kgm^{- 3}
Density of water, σ=103kgm−3\sigma = {10}^{3}kgm^{- 3}

If g′g^{'} be gravitational acceleration in water then,

g′=g(1−σρ)=g(1−10343×103)=g4g^{'} = g\left(1 - \dfrac{σ}{ρ}\right) = g\left(1 - \dfrac{103}{\dfrac{4}{3} \times {10}^{3}}\right) = \dfrac{g}{4}

As, Tair=2πIg{T}_{air} = 2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{I}{g}},

Similarly, Twater=2πIg′[Twater=2s](g′=g4)</p><p>2=2πIg/4=2πIg⋅2{T}_{water} = 2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{I}{g '}} \left[{T}_{water} =2s\right]\left(g^{'} = \dfrac{g}{4}\right)</p><p>2 = 2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{I}{g / 4}} =2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{I}{g}} \cdot2

2=2.Tair2 = 2. {T}_{air}

⇒Tair=1s⇒ {T}_{air} = 1s
