A pendulum made of a uniform wire of cross sectional area $$A$$ has time period $$T.$$ When an additional mass $$M$$ is added to its bob, the time period changes to $${T_{M.}}$$ If the Young's modulus of the material of the wire is $$Y$$ then $${1 \over Y}$$ is equal to :
($$g=$$ $$gravitational$$ $$acceleration$$)

For a simple pendulum, a graph is plotted between its kinetic energy $$(KE)$$ and potential energy $$(PE)$$ against its displacement $$d.$$ Which one of the following represents these correctly?
$$(graphs$$ $$are$$ $$schematic$$ $$and$$ $$not$$ $$drawn$$ $$to$$ $$scale)$$

A particle moves with simple harmonic motion in a straight line. In first $$\tau s,$$ after starting from rest it travels a distance $$a,$$ and in next $$\tau s$$ it travels $$2a,$$ in same direction, then:

The amplitude of a damped oscillator decreases to $$0.9$$ times its original magnitude in $$5s$$. In another $$10s$$ it will decrease to $$\alpha $$ times its original magnitude, where $$\alpha $$ equals
