The distance of the pivot point from the center of mass of the object = 0.85 m
Oscillatory motion is any motion that is repeated at the same time interval and through the same trajectory in its motion.
The simplest oscillatory motion is harmonic motion or simple harmonic motion (SHM).
The simple harmonic motion is a periodic motion that occurs at the same time interval.
We have,
Mass of point = 2.40 kg ⇒ m
Moment of inertia = 1.24 kgm² ⇒ I
Frequency = 0.640 Hz ⇒ f
Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² ⇒ g
Now, find the angular velocity first,
ω = 2[tex]\pi[/tex]f
= 2[tex]\pi[/tex] (0.640)
= 4.0192 rad/s
So, the distance of the pivot point from the center of mass of the object is:
ω = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{mgd}{I} }[/tex]
4.0192 = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{(2.40)(9.8)(d)}{1.24} }[/tex]
d = (4.0192)² (1.24) / (2.40)(9.8)
= 20.0309211/23.52
= 0.85 m
