Bob of a simple pendulum of length is made of iron. The pendulum is oscillating over a horizontal coil carrying direct current. If the time period of the pendulum is then :
Options
- A and damping is smaller than in air alone.
- B and damping is larger than in air alone.
- C and damping is smaller than in air alone.
- D and damping is larger than in air alone.
Correct answer
D. and damping is larger than in air alone.
Step-by-step solution
When the pendulum is oscillating over a current carrying coil, and when the direction of oscillating pendulum bob is opposite to the direction of current. Its instantaneous acceleration increases.
Hence time period and damping is larger than in air alone due energy dissipation.
