BYJu's Selina Solutions For Class 9 Physics
The Learning App Chapter 1 — Measurements and Experimentation
Solution:
(b) 2s
‘Time period is found using the number of oscillations more than once as least count of stop
watch is either Is or 0.5s.
3. The length of a seconds’ pendulum is nearly:
(a) 0.5m
(b) 9.8m,
(©) 1.0m,
(@) 2.0m,
Solution:
(©) 0m
The effective length of a pendulum is the distance of the point of oscillation from the point of
suspension
Numericals:
1, A simple pendulum completes 40 oscillations in one minute, Find its (a) frequency, (b) time
period.
Solution:
Given: oscillations = 40
Time taken = 1 minute or 60s
(a) In one second the frequency is 40/60

2. The time period of a simple pendulum is 2s. What is its frequency? What name is given to
such a pendulum?
Solution:
Given:

‘The name given to such a pendulum is seconds’ pendulum.
3. A seconds’ pendulum is taken to a place where acceleration due to gravity falls to one-
forth. How is the time period of the pendulum affected, if at all? Give reason. What will be
its mew time period? BYJuU'S Selina Solutions For Class 9 Physics
The Lerning ABP Chapter 1 — Measurements and Experimentation
Solution:
‘The time period is affected by acceleration due to gravity. The relation given below clearly states
that
z
Te fe: Time period is inversely proportional to the square root of acceleration due to
gravity. Hence, when ‘g' falls one-fourth, time period increases, it doubles.
Hence the new time period is 2.x 2 = 4s.
4, Find the length of a seconds’ pendulum at a place where g=10ms? (Take m=3.14).

5. Compare the time periods of two pendulums of length 1m and 9m.
Solution:
‘We know that time period of pendulum is:
T=20 ff

+V'= length of the pendulum
‘g’ = acceleration due to gravity
As per the above relation, time period is proportional to the square root of the length.
Let T(1) and T(2) be the time period and L(1) and L(2) be the length of the pendulum
respectively, accordingly;

8. It takes 0.25 for a pendulum bob to move from mean position to one end. What is the time
period of pendulum?
Solution:
Time taken to complete one oscillation is the time period
= (4x0.2)s
= 0.88
9, How much time does the bob of a seconds’ pendulum take to move from one extreme of its
oscillation to the other extreme?
Solution:
We know that the time period of a seconds’ pendulum is 2seconds
+ The time taken for a seconds’ pendulum to make half oscillation is ¥ x 2 seconds = 1
second.
