उत्तर
Let m is the mass of rectangular plate and x is the displacement of the rectangular plate.
During the oscillation, the centre of mass does not change.
Driving force \[\left( F \right)\] is given as,
F = mgsin θ
Comparing the above equation with F = ma, we get:
\[a = \frac{F}{m} = g\sin\theta\]
For small values of θ, sinθ can be taken as equal to θ.
Thus, the above equation reduces to:
\[a = g\theta = g\left( \frac{x}{L} \right) \left[ \text { Where g and L are constant .} \right]\]
It can be seen from the above equation that, a α x.
Hence, the motion is simple harmonic.
Time period of simple harmonic motion \[\left( T \right)\]is given by,
\[T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{\text { displacement }}{\text { Acceleration }}}\]
\[ = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{x}{gx/L}} = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}\]
