The path length of oscillation of simple pendulum of length \(1 \mathrm{~m}\) is \(16 \mathrm{~cm}\). its maximum velocity is (Take \(g=\pi^2 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\) )

  1. A \(2 \pi \mathrm{cm} / \mathrm{s}\)
  2. B \(8 \pi \mathrm{cm} / \mathrm{s}\)
  3. C \(4 \pi \mathrm{cm} / \mathrm{s}\)
  4. D \(16 \pi \mathrm{cm} / \mathrm{s}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(8 \pi \mathrm{cm} / \mathrm{s}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Amplitude of SHM, \(a=8 \mathrm{~cm}\)
Maximum velocity is given by, \(v=a \omega=a \sqrt{\frac{g}{l}}=8 \times \sqrt{\frac{\pi^2}{1}}=8 \pi \mathrm{cm} / \mathrm{s}\)
