Define the frequency of simple harmonic motion.
Advertisements
उत्तर
The number of oscillations produced by the particle per second is called frequency. It is denoted by f. SI unit for frequency is s−1 or hertz (Hz).
Mathematically, frequency is related to the time period by f = `1/"T"`

A simple pendulum has a time period T1. When its point of suspension is moved vertically upwards according to as y = kt2, where y is the vertical distance covered and k = 1 ms−2, its time period becomes T2. Then, T `"T"_1^2/"T"_2^2` is (g = 10 ms−2)
Consider two simple harmonic motion along the x and y-axis having the same frequencies but different amplitudes as x = A sin (ωt + φ) (along x-axis) and y = B sin ωt (along y-axis). Then show that
`"x"^2/"A"^2 + "y"^2/"B"^2 - (2"xy")/"AB" cos φ = sin^2 φ`
and also discuss the special cases when
- φ = 0
- φ = π
- φ = `π/2`
- φ = `π/2` and A = B
- φ = `π/4`
Note: when a particle is subjected to two simple harmonic motions at right angle to each other the particle may move along different paths. Such paths are called Lissajous figures.
