Q.81. A conductor in the shape of a square frame with side a suspended by an elastic thread is located in a uniform horizontal magnetic field with induction B. In equilibrium the plane of the frame is parallel to the vector B (Fig. 4.25). Having been displaced from the equilibrium position, the frame performs small oscillations about a vertical axis passing through its centre. The moment of inertia of the frame relative to that axis is equal to I, its electric resistance is R. Neglecting the inductance of the frame, find the time interval after which the amplitude of the frame's deviation angle decreases e-fold.

Ans. If φ = angle of deviation of the frame from its normal position, then an e.m.f.

is induced in the frame in the displaced position and a current  flows in it. A couple

then acts on the frame in addition to any elastic restoring couple c φ. We write the equation of the frame as

Thus  where β is defined in the book.

Q.82. A bar of mass m = 0.50 kg lying on a horizontal plane with a friction coefficient k = 0.10 is attached to the wall by means of a horizontal non-deformed spring. The stiffness of the spring is equal to x = 2.45 N/cm, its mass is negligible. The bar was displaced so that the spring was stretched by x0 = 3.0 cm, and then released. Find:
(a) the period of oscillation of the bar;
(b) the total number of oscillations that the bar performs until it stops completely.

Ans. We shall denote the stiffness constant by k . Suppose the spring is stretched by x0 . The bar in then subject to two horizontal forces (1) restorin g force - k x and (2) friction kmg opposing motion. If

the bar will come back.

(If x0 ≤ Δ , the bar will stay put) The equation of the bar when it is moving to the left is

This equation has the solution

where we have used  This solution is only valid till the bar comes to rest. This happens at

and at that time    the tendency of the rod will now be to move to the right . (if  the rod will stay put now) Now the equation for rightward motion becomes'*

(the friction force has reversed ).

We notice that the rod will move to the right only if

In this case the solution is

The rod will next come to rest at

and at that instant . How ever the rod will stay put unless x0 > 5Δ. Thus

(a) time period of one full oscillation

(b) There is no oscillation if 0 < x0 < Δ

One half oscillation if Δ < x0 < 3Δ

2 half oscillation if 3Δ < x0< 5Δ etc.
We can say that the number of full oscillations is one half of the integer n
