Resonance occurs when the frequency of an external periodic force matches the natural frequency of a system. From that, physicists know that resonance causes the amplitude of oscillations to increase significantly. This can be beneficial in devices, such as musical instruments, but dangerous in stru

Two simple harmonic motion are represented by,

And



The ratio of their amplitudes is

$A_{1} = \sqrt[]{{(5)}^{2} + {(5 \sqrt[]{3})}^{2}} = 10$

$A_{2} = 5$

Then, $\frac{A_{1}}{A_{2}} = \frac{10}{5} = \frac{2}{1}$

For an SHM oscillator, the amplitude is 5 cm and its time period is 4 seconds. The minimum time taken by the particle to pass between points which are at distances 4 cm and 3 cm from the centre of oscillation on the same side of it will be

$y = A \sin ? \frac{2 π t}{T}$

$t_{2} - t_{1} = \frac{T}{2 π} [\sin^{- 1} ? \frac{x_{1}}{A} - \sin^{- 1} ? \frac{x_{2}}{A}]$

The given arrangement is in vertical plane and initially the springs are in natural length. The uniform rod is hinged at end O, about which it can freely rotate. The angular frequency of small oscillations of the rod is n/8 √(k/m). Find n. (Given: m = mass of rod, L = length of rod and k = mg/L)

Given mg = kL
∴ Iα = (kLθ.L + k (L/2)²θ - mg (L/2)θ)
(mL²/3)α = kL² (3/4)θ (restoring torque)
α = (9k/4m)θ
∴ ω = (3/2)√ (k/m)

For an SHM oscillator, the amplitude is 5 cm and its time period is 4 seconds. The minimum time taken by the particle to pass between points which are at distances 4 cm and 3 cm from the centre of oscillation on the same side of it will be

y = A sin (2πt/T)
t? - t? = (T/2π) [sin? ¹ (x? /A) - sin? ¹ (x? /A)]
