Equations of motion of a disk oscillating inside a cylinder
A disk of radius r and mass M is oscillating inside a cylinder with a bigger radius R, without slipping. The goal is to find the dependency on $\omega$, the angular velocity of the disk, and $\frac{d\...

Is the given system going to perform a simple harmonic motion? [closed]
The system shown in the picture consists of a spring of constant $k$, a pulley (disk) of mass $M$ and radius $R$ and a block of mass $m$ is let free from rest. There is no slipping between the rope ...

Does time period of a simple pendulum vary if I heat its metallic bob? [closed]
How does the time period of a simple pendulum with a metallic bob vary if we heat its metallic bob? The pendulum is assumed to be a simple one and air drag is taken to be negligible.
Please provide a ...

Vibration of pulley and string system [closed]
So here's the statement:
A pulley of a mass $M$ is hanged using a spring (stiffness of the string being $k_1$), as shown in the image. What is the frequency of the pulley's oscillation?
So that's as ...
