Question

An annular ring of internal and outer radii r and R respectively oscillates in a vertical plane about a horizontal axis perpendicular to its plane and passing through a point on its outer edge. Calculate its time period and show that the length of an equivalent simple pendulum is 3R2 as r0 and 2R as rR.

Solution

Mass per unit area=mπ(R2r2)=σ (say)
Whole mass m1=(πR2)σ
=(R2R2r2)m
Mass of cavity m2=(πR2)σ
=(r2R2r2)m
I=32m1R2[12m2r2+m2R2]
=32[R2R2r2]mR2[12(r2R2r2)mr2+(r2R2r2)mR2]
=m2(R2r2)[3R4r42r2R2]
=m(3R2+r2)2
Now, T=2πImgl (i)
Here, l=R
ImR=3R2+r22R
Substituting in Eq. (i) we have,
T=2π 3R2+r22Rg
Comparing with
T=2πlg
l of pendulum=3R2+r22R
l=3R2 as r0
and l=2R as rR
