D$T / 12$
d (d) $y = A\sin \omega t = \frac{{A\sin 2\pi }}{T}t$
==> $\frac{A}{2} = A\sin \frac{{2\pi t}}{T}$
==> $t = \frac{T}{{12}}$.

One end of a long metallic wire of length $L$ is tied to the ceiling. The other end is tied to massless spring of spring constant $K$. A mass $ m$ hangs freely from the free end of the spring. The area of cross-section and Young's modulus of the wire are $A$ and $Y$ respectively. If the mass is slightly pulled down and released, it will oscillate with a time period $T$ equal to
There is a simple pendulum hanging from the ceiling of a lift. When the lift is stand still, the time period of the pendulum is $T$. If the resultant acceleration becomes $g/4,$ then the new time period of the pendulum is
A particle of mass $m$ executes simple harmonic motion with amplitude $a$ and frequency $v$. The average kinetic energy during its motion from the position of equilibrium to the end is
A block of mass $1 \,kg$ attached to a spring is made to oscillate with an initial amplitude of $12\, cm$. After $2\, minutes$ the amplitude decreases to $6\, cm$. Determine the value of the damping constant for this motion. (take In $2=0.693$ )
Figure shows the circular motion of a particle. The radius of the circle, the period, sense of revolution and the initial position are indicated in the figure. The simple harmonic motion of the $x-$ projection of the radius vector of the rotating particle $P$ is
For a simple pendulum, a graph is plotted between its kinetic energy $(KE)$ and potential energy $(PE)$ against its displacement $d$. Which one of the following represents these correctly? (graphs are schematic and not drawn to scale)
A simple pendulum performs simple harmonic motion about $X = 0$ with an amplitude $A$ and time period $T$. The speed of the pendulum at $X = \frac{A}{2}$ will be
