  • A
    $\frac{MgA^2}{L}$
  • B
    $\frac{2MgA^2}{L}$
  • C
    $\frac{MgA}{2L}$
  • D

The bob of a simple pendulum of length $200 \ cm$ is released from a horizontal position. If $10 \%$ of its initial energy is lost due to air resistance,then the speed of the bob at the mean position is (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \ m \ s^{-2}$) (in $m \ s^{-1}$)

If the mass of the bob in a simple pendulum is increased to thrice its original mass and its length is made half its original length,then the new time period of oscillation is $\frac{x}{2}$ times its original time period. Then the value of $x$ is

The instantaneous displacement of a simple pendulum oscillator is given by $x = A \cos \left( \omega t + \frac{\pi}{4} \right)$. Its speed will be maximum at time

If the mass of a bob of a pendulum is increased by $9$ times, the period of the pendulum will?

If two persons sit on a swing instead of one,why does the time period not change?
