When a particle of mass \(m\) is attached to a vertical spring of spring constant \(k\) and released, its motion is described by \(y ( t )= y _{0} \sin ^{2} \omega t ,\) where \('y'\) is measured from the lower end of unstretched spring. Then \(\omega\) is

  1. A \(\sqrt{\frac{g}{y_{0}}}\)
  2. B \(\sqrt{\frac{g}{2 y_{0}}}\)
  3. C \(\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{g}{y_{0}}}\)
  4. D \(\sqrt{\frac{2 g}{y_{0}}}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\sqrt{\frac{g}{2 y_{0}}}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(y = y _{0} \sin ^{2} \omega t\) \(y =\frac{ y _{0}}{2}(1-\cos 2 \omega t )\) \(y -\frac{ y _{0}}{2}=-\frac{ y _{0}}{2} cos 2 \omega t\) Amplitude : \(\frac{y_{0}}{2}\) \(\frac{y_{0}}{2}=\frac{m g}{K}\) \(2 \omega=\sqrt{\frac{K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2 g}{y_{0}}}\)…
