If a pendulum takes 2 sec to swing in each direction, find the period and the frequency of the swing

1 answer:

8 0

The period ( measured in s) is the amount of time is takes for the pendulum to make a single cycle, i.e. how long it takes to swing in both direction. The frequency (measured in Hz) is the inverse of the period, the number of cycles it completes in one second.

So long as you know one you can find the other by diving 1 by it. Period = 1 / frequency, and frequency = 1 / period

If the pendulum takes 2s in each direction, then it has a period of 4s. So the frequency = 1 / 4s = 0.25Hz

Gennadij [26K]

Harmonic excitation refers to a sinusoidal external force of a certain frequency applied to a system. ... Resonance occurs when the external excitation has the same frequency as the natural frequency of the system. It leads to large displacements and can cause a system to exceed its elastic range and fail structurally.

Answer:

Fcte10 < Fcte01 = Fcte0 < Fctm11 < Fcte21 = Fctm21 < Fcte12 = Fctm12 < Fcte22

Explanation:

Assuming a = 2b

Attached below is the required steps to the solution

The cutoff frequencies for the first ten modes of a rectangular waveguide listed in ascending order is :

Fcte10 < Fcte01 = Fcte0 < Fctm11 < Fcte21 = Fctm21 < Fcte12 = Fctm12 < Fcte22
