Length of a simple pendulum is $l$ and its maximum angular displacement is $\theta$, then its maximum $K.E.$ is
A$mgl\sin \theta $
B$mgl(1 + \sin \theta )$

D$mgl(1 - \cos \theta )$
d (d) Kinetic energy will be maximum at mean position.
From law of conservation of energy maximum kinetic energy at mean position = Potential energy at displaced position
==> ${K_{\max }} = mgh = mgl(1 - \cos \theta )$

A simple pendulum is attached to the roof of a lift. If time period of oscillation, when the lift is stationary is $T$. Then frequency of oscillation, when the lift falls freely, will be
An object of mass $m$ is suspended at the end of a massless wire of length $L$ and area of cross$-$section, $A$. Young modulus of the material of the wire is $Y$. If the mass is pulled down slightly its frequency of oscillation along the vertical direction is
A particle executes $SHM.$ Its velocities are $v_1$and $v_2$ at displacement $x_1$ and $x_2$ from mean position respectively. The frequency of oscillation will be
A point particle is acted upon by a restoring force $-k x^{3}$. The time-period of oscillation is $T$, when the amplitude is $A$. The time-period for an amplitude $2 A$ will be
The length of a spring is $l$ and its force constant is $k$. When a weight $W$ is suspended from it, its length increases by $x$. If the spring is cut into two equal parts and put in parallel and the same weight $W$ is suspended from them, then the extension will be
Which of the following expressions corresponds to simple harmonic motion along a straight line, where $x$ is the displacement and $a, b, c$ are positive constants?
