A simple pendulum oscillates in air with time period $T$ and amplitude $A$. As the time passes:

A pendulum clock has time period $T$ at normal room temperature. If $T_s$ and $T_w$ are the time periods of the same pendulum in summers and winters respectively, then;

Assertion: The graph between velocity and displacement for a harmonic oscillation is a straight line.
Reason: Velocity changes uniformly with displacement in simple harmonic motion.

What is the number of degrees of freedom for an oscillating simple pendulum?

A man measures the period of simple pendulum inside a stationary lift and finds it to be $\mathrm{T}$ second. If the lift accelerates downwards with acceleration of $\mathrm{g} / 4$, the period of oscillation will be-

A pendulum clock is placed on the moon, where object weighs only one-sixth as much as on earth, how many seconds the clock tick out in an actual time of 1 minute the clock keeps good time on earth?

Two pendulum oscillate with a constant phase difference of $45^{\circ}$ and same amplitude. If the maximum velocity of one of them is $v$ and that of other is $v+x$, then the value of $x$ will be

A circular disc rotating with frequency $f_0=1.3$ rev/sec comes to a stop in 30 seconds. The approximate angular acceleration is:
