Two masses,both equal to $100\, g$,are suspended at the ends of identical light strings of length $\ell = 1.0\, m$,attached to the same point on the ceiling (see figure). At time $t = 0$,they are simultaneously released from rest,one at angle $\theta_1 = 1^o$,the other at angle $\theta_2 = 2^o$ from the vertical. The masses will collide

  • A
    at $\theta = 0.0^o$,$0.50\, s$ later.
  • B
    at $\theta = 5.0^o$ to the right of the vertical,$0.16\, s$ later.
  • C
    at $\theta = 0.0^o$,$0.13\, s$ later.
  • D
    at $\theta = 5.0^o$ to the right of the vertical,$0.10\, s$ later.

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 $m \ s^{-1}$)

$A$ simple pendulum has a time period $T$ in air. Its time period when it is completely immersed in a liquid of density one-eighth the density of the material of the bob is:

The amplitude of an oscillating simple pendulum is $10 \ cm$ and its period is $4 \ s$. Its speed $1 \ s$ after it passes its equilibrium position is ... $m/s$.

The time period of a simple pendulum inside a stationary lift is $\sqrt{3} \ s$. When the lift moves upwards with an acceleration $g/3$,the new time period will be ($g=$ acceleration due to gravity).
