A spring-block system oscillates with a time period \(T\) on the earth's surface. When the system is brought into a deep mine, the time period of oscillation becomes \(T'.\) Then one can conclude that:
1. \(T'>T\)
2. \(T'<T\)
3. \(T'=T\)
4. \(T'=2T\)
1. | \(T_1<T_2\) | 2. | \(T_1>T_2\) |
3. | \(T_1=T_2\) |
4. | \(T_1= 2T_2\) |
The graph between the velocity \((v)\) of a particle executing SHM and its displacement \((x)\) is shown in the figure. The time period of oscillation for this SHM will be:
1. \(\sqrt{\frac{\alpha}{\beta}}\)
2. \(2\pi\sqrt{\frac{\alpha}{\beta}}\)
3. \(2\pi\left(\frac{\beta}{\alpha}\right)\)
4. \(2\pi\left(\frac{\alpha}{\beta}\right)\)
Acceleration-time (\(a\text-t\)) graph for a particle performing SHM is shown in the figure. Select the incorrect statement.
1. | Displacement of a particle at \(A\) is negative. |
2. | The potential energy of the particle at \(C\) is minimum. |
3. | The velocity of the particle at \(B\) is positive. |
4. | Speed of particle at \(D\) is decreasing. |
