Chapter 7,8

1. The document contains questions from chapters 7 and 8 of the F.SC physics part 1 curriculum. It includes 7 multiple choice questions testing concepts like amplitude in simple harmonic motion, factors that determine the period of a simple pendulum, types of oscillations, and properties of waves. 2. The second section contains 7 short answer questions asking about frequency dependence on amplitude, examples of resonance, realizing an ideal simple pendulum, why sound travels faster in solids than gases, common features of longitudinal and transverse waves, and the total distance traveled in one period of SHM. 3. The final question defines the two molar specific heats of a gas and relates them, and calculates the frequency of a 50cm
