Important questions of oscillations-
1. What is meant by periodic and oscillatory motion? Distinguish between them.
2. What is meant by SHM . Find the expressions for displacement , velocity and acceleration. Also find the phase difference between them.
3. Find the potential energy and kinetic energy of a SHM and hence show that total energy is conserved . In what position of the oscillation is the energy wholly kinetic and wholly potential?
4. Prove that for an harmonic motion time period T = 1/2π(spring factor/inertial factor)1/2.
5. What is simple pendulum? Derive expression for the time period or frequency of the oscillating simple pendulum. Also explain the second pendulum and find the length of the second pendulum on the surface of earth.
