A particle executes linear simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of of 3 cm. When the particle is at 2 cm from the mean position, the magnitude of its velocity  is equal to that of its acceleration. Then, its time period in seconds is 

(a) $\sqrt{\frac{5}{\pi }}$

(b)$\sqrt{\frac{5}{2\mathrm{\pi }}}$

(c)$\frac{4\mathrm{\pi }}{\sqrt{5}}$

(d)$\frac{2\mathrm{\pi }}{\sqrt{3}}$

A body mass m is attached to the lower end of a spring whose upper end is fixed. The spring has neglible mass. When the mass m is slightly pulled down and released, it oscillates with a time period of 3s. When the mass m is increased by 1 kg, the time period of oscillations becomes 5s. The value of m in kg is-

(1) $\frac{3}{4}$               

(2)$\frac{4}{3}$

(3) $\frac{16}{9}$               

(4) $\frac{9}{16}$

When two displacements represented by y₁=asin(ωt) and y₂=bcos(ωt) are superimposed,the motion is -

(1) not a simple harmonic

(2) simple harmonic with amplitude a/b

(3) simple harmonic with amplitude $\sqrt{a^{2 }+ b^2}$

(4) simple harmonic with amplitude (a+b)/2

The damping force on an oscillator is directly proportional to the velocity.The units of the constant of proportionality are 

(1)$kg m{s}^{-1}$                               

(2)$kg m{s}^{-2}$

(3)$kg s^{-1}$                                   

(4)$kg s$

The period of oscillation of a mass \(M\) suspended from a spring of negligible mass is \(T.\) If along with it another mass \(M\) is also suspended, the period of oscillation will now be:
1. \(T\)
2. \(T/\sqrt{2}\)
3. \(2T\)
4. \(\sqrt{2} T\)

Two simple harmonic motions of angular frequency \(100~\text{rad s}^{-1}\) and \(1000~\text{rad s}^{-1}\) have the same displacement amplitude. The ratio of their maximum acceleration will be:
1. \(1:10\)
2. \(1:10^{2}\)
3. \(1:10^{3}\)
4. \(1:10^{4}\)

A point performs simple harmonic oscillation of period T and the equation of motion is given by x= a sin $\left(\omega t +\pi /6\right)$.After the elapse of what fraction of the time period the velocity of the point will be equal to half to its maximum velocity?

(1)$\frac{T}{8}$

(2) $\frac{T}{6}$

(3) $\frac{T}{3}$

(4) $\frac{T}{12}$
