Oscillations Additional Exercises Solutions
- Q14.20: An air chamber of volume $V$ has a neck area of cross section $a$ into which a ball of mass $m$ just fits and can move up and down without any friction (Fig.14.27). Show that when the ball is pressed down a little and released , it executes SHM. Obtain an expression for the time period of oscillations assuming pressure-volume variations of air to be isothermal [see Fig. 14.27].
- Q14.21(a): You are riding in an automobile of mass 3000 kg. Assuming that you are examining the oscillation characteristics of its suspension system. The suspension sags 15 cm when the entire automobile is placed on it. Also, the amplitude of oscillation decreases by 50% during one complete oscillation. Estimate the values of (a) the spring constant $k$ and
- Q14.21(b): You are riding in an automobile of mass 3000 kg. Assuming that you are examining the oscillation characteristics of its suspension system. The suspension sags 15 cm when the entire automobile is placed on it. Also, the amplitude of oscillation decreases by 50% during one complete oscillation. Estimate the values of (b) the damping constant $b$ for the spring and shock absorber system of one wheel, assuming that each wheel supports 750 kg.
- Q14.22: Show that for a particle in linear SHM the average kinetic energy over a period of oscillation equals the average potential energy over the same period.
- Q14.23: A circular disc of mass 10 kg is suspended by a wire attached to its centre. The wire is twisted by rotating the disc and released. The period of torsional oscillations is found to be 1.5 s. The radius of the disc is 15 cm. Determine the torsional spring constant of the wire. (Torsional spring constant $\alpha$ is defined by the relation $J = –\alpha \theta$, where $J$ is the restoring couple and $\theta$ the angle of twist).
- Q14.24(a): A body describes simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 5 cm and a period of 0.2 s. Find the acceleration and velocity of the body when the displacement is (a) 5 cm
- Q14.24(b): A body describes simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 5 cm and a period of 0.2 s. Find the acceleration and velocity of the body when the displacement is (b) 3 cm
- Q14.24(c): A body describes simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 5 cm and a period of 0.2 s. Find the acceleration and velocity of the body when the displacement is (c) 0 cm.
- Q14.25: A mass attached to a spring is free to oscillate, with angular velocity $\omega$, in a horizontal plane without friction or damping. It is pulled to a distance $x_0$ and pushed towards the centre with a velocity $v_0$ at time $t = 0$. Determine the amplitude of the resulting oscillations in terms of the parameters $\omega$, $x_0$ and $v_0$. [Hint : Start with the equation $x = a cos (\omega t+\theta)$ and note that the initial velocity is negative.]

Online Classes I am a highly experienced educator with over 14 years of academic and teaching experience, including 12 years dedicated to undergraduate and postgraduate instruction in physics-based engineering subjects. I have also provided personalised private tuitions for school students, including ICSE 10th standard, with a focus on conceptual clarity and problem-solving. I am currently offering online and home tuition for Physics, especially tailored to high school students. If you're looking for a dedicated, concept-oriented, and motivational tutor who brings both academic depth and real-world applications into lessons, I’d be happy to assist.
I’ve been taking one-to-one online tuition for Class 11 CBSE Physics, and it’s been a really good experience. The teacher explains concepts in a very simple and clear way, which makes even tough chapters easy to understand. Classes are interactive, and I always feel comfortable asking questions—my doubts get cleared right away. The best part is how the teacher connects topics with real-life examples and gives useful tips for solving problems. I’ve started feeling much more confident in Physics now, and my interest in the subject has definitely grown. Totally recommend these classes to anyone who wants personal attention and better clarity in Physics!
