JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 13. oscillations

A light hollow cube of side length 10 cm and mass 10 g , is floating in water. It is pushed down and released to execute simple harmonic oscillations. The time period of oscillations is \(y \pi \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~s}\), where the value of \(y\) is ________.
(Acceleration due to gravity, \(g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\), density of water \(=10^3 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{m}^3\) )

  1. A \(6\)
  2. B \(2\)
  3. C \(4\)
  4. D \(1\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Additional buoyant force \(\begin{aligned} & g \rho a^2 x=\sigma a^3 A \\ & A=\frac{\rho}{\sigma} \frac{g}{a} x \\ & T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{\sigma a}{\rho g}} \end{aligned}\) Now, \(\sigma=\frac{10 \times 10^{-3}}{10^{-3}}=10\)…
