Two identical thin rods, each with mass m and length L, are joined at right angles to form an L-shaped object. This object is balanced on top of a sharp edge (Fig. P14.88). If the L-shaped object is deflected slightly, it oscillates. Find the frequency of oscillation.

Short Answer

Expert verified

\(\frac{1}{{4\pi }}\sqrt {\frac{{6g}}{{\sqrt 2 \;L}}} \)

Step by step solution

01

Given Data

\(\begin{array}{l}{\rm{mass}}\;{\rm{of}}\;{\rm{each}}\;{\rm{rod}} = m\\{\rm{length}} = L\\{\rm{angle}} = 90^\circ \end{array}\)

02

Concept

The frequency of oscillation is calculated by how many waves completes the oscillation per unit time.

03

Determine the frequency of oscillation

From the figure, the third side of the right angled triangle is

\(x = \sqrt {{L^2} + {L^2}} \)

x= third side of the right angled triangle.

\(\begin{array}{c}x = \sqrt {2{L^2}} \\ = \sqrt 2 \;L\end{array}\)

The center of gravity balanced by the rod is,

\(\begin{array}{l}d = \frac{L}{{2\sqrt 2 }}\\d = {\rm{balanced}}\;{\rm{distance}}\;{\rm{of}}\;{\rm{the}}\;{\rm{rods}}\end{array}\)

Moment of inertia is,

\(I = \frac{2}{3}m{L^2}\)

Frequency of oscillation of thin two rods is,

\(\begin{array}{c}f = \frac{1}{{2\pi }}\sqrt {\frac{{2mgd}}{I}} \;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\left( {d = \frac{L}{{2\sqrt 2 }};\;I = \frac{2}{3}m{L^2}} \right)\\f = \frac{1}{{2\pi }}\sqrt {\frac{{2mg\left( {\frac{L}{{2\sqrt 2 }}} \right)}}{{\frac{2}{3}m{L^2}}}} \\ = \frac{1}{{2\pi }}\sqrt {\frac{{6g}}{{4\sqrt 2 \;L}}} \\ = \frac{1}{{4\pi }}\sqrt {\frac{{6g}}{{\sqrt 2 \;L}}} \end{array}\)

Hence the frequency of oscillation is \(\frac{1}{{4\pi }}\sqrt {\frac{{6g}}{{\sqrt 2 \;L}}} \)

A useful and easy-to-remember approximate value for the number of seconds in a year is饾洃脳107. Determine the percent error in this approximate value. (There are 365.24 days in one year.)

A ball is thrown straight up from the edge of the roof of a building. A second ball is dropped from the roof 1.00slater. Ignore air resistance. (a) If the height of the building is20.0m, what must the initial speed of the first ball be if both are to hit the ground at the same time? On the same graph, sketch the positions of both balls as a function of time, measured from when the first ball is thrown. Consider the same situation, but now let the initial speedv0of the first ball be given and treat the heightof the building as an unknown. (b) What must the height of the building be for both balls to reach the ground at the same time if (i)localid="1655791911691" v0is9.5m/s? (c) Ifv0is greater than some valuevmax, no value ofexists that allows both balls to hit the ground at the same time. Solve forvmax. The valuevmaxhas a simple physical interpretation. What is it? (d) Ifv0is less than some valuevmin, no value ofexists that allows both balls to hit the ground at the same time. Solve forvmin. The valuevminalso has a simple physical interpretation. What is it?

A Honda Civic travels in a straight line along a road. The car鈥檚 distance x from a stop sign is given as a function of time t by the equationxt=t2-t3 where role="math" localid="1655226337795" =1.50m/s2androle="math" localid="1655226362269" =0.0500m/s2 . Calculate the average velocity of the car for each time interval: (a) t = 0 to t = 2.00 s; (b) t = 0 to t = 4.00 s; (c) t = 2.00 s to t = 4.00 s.

A driver in Massachusetts was sent to traffic court for speeding. The evidence against the driver was that a policewoman observed the driver鈥檚 car alongside a second car at a certain moment, and the policewoman had already clocked the second car going faster than the speed limit. The driver argued, 鈥淭he second car was passing me. I was not speeding.鈥 The judge ruled against the driver because, in the judge鈥檚 words, 鈥淚f two cars were side by side, both of you were speeding.鈥 If you were a lawyer representing the accused driver, how would you argue this case?
