Q 1 :    

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 yπ×102 s, where the value of y is (Acceleration due to gravity, g=10 m/s2, density of water =103 kg/m3)          [2025]

Additional buoyant force,

L2xρg=manet

anet=(L2ρgm)x

ω2=(L2ρgm)  ω=(L2ρgm)

T=2πmL2ρg

where m = 10 g, L = 10 cm, ρ = 1000 kg/m3

T=2π10×103(10×102)2×1000×10
