The Laws of a Simple Pendulum Subject: Physics A simple pendulum has a small-diameter bob and a string that has a very small mass but is strong adequate not to stretch significantly. The period of a simple pendulum is given by T =…
Seconds Pendulum Subject: Physics Definition: If the time period of a pendulum is 2 seconds, it is called Seconds Pendulum. i.e. It is a pendulum which takes one second in making half of a complete oscillation. It is often…
Simple Pendulum Subject: Physics Definition: A Simple Pendulum is defined as a heavy particle suspended by a weightless, in-extensible but perfectly flexible string. The point of suspension should be a rigid support about which it must oscillate without any…
Oscillatory Motion Subject: Physics Definition: It is a kind of periodic motion in which an object reverses its direction after a certain interval of time. Any particle in periodic motion executing back and forth motion over the same path…
Periodic Motion Subject: Physics Definition: If the motion of a particle (or an object) is such that, it passes through a certain point from the same direction after a certain definite interval of time, then the motion is known…
What is meant by Simple Harmonic Motion? Subject: Physics If the periodic and oscillatory motion of a particle is such that, its acceleration is directly proportional to the displacement from its equilibrium position of rest and is always directed towards the equilibrium position, then…
