14.10 In Exercise 14.9, let us take the position of mass when the spring is unstretched as x = 0, and the direction from left to right as the positive direction of x-axis. Give x as a function of time t for the oscillating mass if at the moment we start the stopwatch (t = 0), the mass is

(a) At the mean position

(b) At the maximum stretched position

(c) At the maximum compressed position

In what way do these functions for SHM differ from each other, in frequency, in amplitude or the initial phase?

If the time period of a two meter long simple pendulum is 2s, the acceleration due to gravity at the place where pendulum is executing S.H.M. is:

In the given figure, a mass M is attached to a horizontal spring which is fixed on one side to a rigid support. The spring constant of the spring is k. The mass oscillates on a frictionless surface with time period T and amplitude A. When the mass is in equilibrium position, as shown in the figure, another mass m is gently fixed upon it. New amplitude of oscillation will be:

The fundamental frequency of an organ pipe open at one end is 300 Hz. The frequency of 3rd overtone of n Find n.×this organ pipe is 100 Hz

Consider two identical springs each of spring constant k and negligible mass compared to the mass M as shown. Fig. 1 shows one of them and Fig. 2 shows their series combination. The ratios of time period of oscillation of the two SHM is T_b / T_a = √x, where value of x is ................... (Round off to the Nearest Integer)

For what value of displacement the kinetic energy and potential energy of a simple harmonic oscillation become equal?
