Other SHM Systems

A piece of wood has length, breadth and height, ' aa ', ' bb ' and ' cc ' respectively. Its relative density, is ' dd '. It is floating in water such that the side ' aa ' is vertical. It is pushed down a little and released. The time period of S.H.M. executed by it is (g=g = acceleration due to gravity)

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

  1. Horizontal face area bcbc, mass m=dρwabcm = d\rho_w abc; restoring constant =ρw(bc)g= \rho_w (bc) g.
  2. T=2πdρwabcρwbc g=2πadgT = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{d\rho_w abc}{\rho_w bc\, g}} = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{ad}{g}}, answer (d).
