1/2π √g.h/k2G +h2 b) 1/2π √k2G +h2/g.h c) 2π√g.h/k2G +h2 d) 2π√k2G +h2/g.h 1 : A,
harmonic-motion/ Explanation: We know that the periodic time,tp =
2π√Displacement/Accleration = 2π√θ/αand frequency of oscillation,n = 1/tp = 1/2π
√g.h/k2G +h2where kG = Radius of gyration about the centroidal axis, andh =
Distance between the point of suspension and centre of gravity of the body. 1 :
Extremely Difficult, 10 2 : understand,
harmonic motion 2. The equivalent length of a simple pendulum which gives the
same frequency as the compound pendulum is a) h/ k2G +h2 b) k2G +h2/h c)
h2/k2G +h2 d) k2G +h2/h2 2 : B, https://www.sanfoundry.com/machine-
kinematics-questions-answers-simple-harmonic-motion/ Explanation: By comparing the
frequencies of simple pendulum to compound pendulum we get the equivalent length of
simple pendulum as k2G +h2/h. 1 : Extremely Difficult, 10 1 : remember,
harmonic motion 3. The frequency of oscillation of a torsional pendulum is a)
2πkG/r √g/I b) r/2πkG√g/I c) 2πkG/r√I/g d) r/2πkG√I/g 2 : B,
harmonic-motion/ Explanation: None. 3 : Average, 10 3 : apply,

harmonic motion 4. The centre of percussion is below the centre of gravity of the
body and is at a distance equal to a) h / kG b) h.kG c) h2/kG d) k2G/h 4 : D
harmonic-motion/ Explanation: The centre of oscillation is sometimes termed as
centre of percussion. It is defined as that point at which a blow may be struck on
a suspended body so that the reaction at the support is zero. The centre of
percussion is below the centre of gravity and at a distance k2G/h. The distance
between the centre of suspension and the centre of percussion is equal to the
equivalent length of a simple pendulum. 2 : Difficult, 10 1 : remember,
