MCQ
Select wrong statement about simple,harmonic motion
  • The body is uniformly accelerated
  • B
    The velocity of the body changes smoothly at all instants
  • C
    The amplitude of oscillation is symmetric about the equilibrium position
  • D
    The frequency of oscillation is independent of amplitude

Answer

Correct option: A.
The body is uniformly accelerated
a
(a)

In $S.H.M.$

$a=-\omega^2 x$

Thus acceleration varies linearly with time.

A nonuniform rod $OM$ (of length $l$ ) is kept along $x-$ axis and is rotating about an axis $AB$ , which is perpendicular to rod as shown in the figure. The rod has linear mass density that varies with the distance $x$ from left end of the rod according to $\lambda  = {\lambda _0}\left( {\frac{{{x^3}}}{{{L^3}}}} \right)$ ; where $\lambda_0$ is constant. What is the value of $x$ so that moment of inertia of rod about axis $AB (I_{AB})$ is minimum?
