Test: JEE Main 35 Year PYQs- Simple Harmonic Motion (Oscillations) - Question 1

When a particle of mass m moves on the x-axis in a potential of the form V(x) = kx2 it performs simple harmonic motion. The corresponding time period is proportional to  as can be seen easily using dimensional analysis. However, the motion of a particle can be periodic even when its potential energy increases on both sides of x = 0 in a way different from kx2 and its total energy is such that the particle does not escape to infinity. Consider a particle of mass m moving on the x-axis. Its potential energy is V(x) = αx4 (α > 0) for |x| near the origin and becomes a constant equal to V0 for |x| > X0 (see figure).

Q. If the total energy of the particle is E, it will perform periodic motion only if

Detailed Solution for Test: JEE Main 35 Year PYQs- Simple Harmonic Motion (Oscillations) - Question 1

If the energy is zero, the particle will not perform oscillations. Therefore E should be greater than zero.
Further if E = V0, the potential energy will become constant as depicted in the graph given. In this case also the particle will not oscillate.
Therefore E should be greater than zero but less than V0.

Test: JEE Main 35 Year PYQs- Simple Harmonic Motion (Oscillations) - Question 4

Phase space diagrams are useful tools in analyzing all kinds of dynamical problems. They are especially useful in studying the changes in motion as initial position and momenum are changed.
Here we consider some simple dynamical systems in one dimension. For such systems, phase space is a plane in which position is plotted along horizontal axis and momentum is plotted along vertical axis. The phase space diagram is x(t) vs. p(t) curve in this plane. The arrow on the curve indicates the time flow. For example, the phase space diagram for a particle moving with constant velocity is a straight line as shown in the figure. We use the sign convention in which positon or momentum upwards (or to right) is positive and downwards (or to left) is negative.

Q. The phase space diagram for a ball thrown vertically up from ground is

Detailed Solution for Test: JEE Main 35 Year PYQs- Simple Harmonic Motion (Oscillations) - Question 4

When the ball is thrown upwards, at the point of throw (O) the linear momentum is in upwards direction (and has a maximum value ) and the position is zero. As the time passes, the ball moves upwards and its momentum goes on decreasing and the position becomes positive. The momentum becomes zero at the topmost point (A).

As the time increases, the ball starts moving down with an increasing linear momentum in the downward direction (negative) and reaches back to its original position.
These characteristics are represented by graph (d).
