Q5. State how does the time period of a simple pendulum depends on a) acceleration due to gravity, 

        b) length of pendulum and   c) amplitude of oscillation. 3

Q6. Define a) amplitude of a simple pendulum, b) frequency  of a simple pendulum  and c) seconds pendulum. 3

Q7. What are the three requirements  for selecting a good unit of a physical quantity. 3

Q8 Write the derived unit of FORCE ( in terms of symbols of basic units) in a) MKS b) CGS and c) FPS system of unit. 3

ANSWERS:

A1. a) Measurement is the process of comparing the value of a physical quantity with a chosen standard value of same kind. B) The standard quantity selected to measure a physical quantity is called  a unit.

A2a) candelabra   b) steradian

A3 a) 10^6 ( ten to the power of six) b) 10^-3

A4. T1/T2=\ /~~l1/l2 =\/~2/18=\/~~1/9=1/3= 1:3

A5. Time period is inversely proportional to the square root of acceleration due to gravity. 

Time period is directly proportional to the square root of the length of a pendulum.

Time period does not depend on the amplitude.
