Find the period of oscillation of a disk of mass 0.32 kg and radius 0.15 m if it is pivoted about a small hole drilled near its rim.
ANSWER:
Solution 87 GP
Step 1 of 2
We have to find the period of oscillation of a disk of mass 0.32 kg and radius 0.15 m if it is pivoted about a small hole drilled near its rim.
The period of the oscillation of the disk can be found using the expression for the period of a physical pendulum.
where,
distance from the pivot point to
the centre of the mass = radius of
disk = 0.15 m
m/s2
Moment of Inertia of the disk in kgm2
mass of the disk = 0.32 kg
