Important Questions from Oscillations

1multiple choice

In SHM, how is acceleration related to displacement?

Show answer

Acceleration is proportional to displacement

In SHM, acceleration is always proportional to displacement and directed towards the equilibrium position.

2multiple choice

What is the unit of frequency?

Show answer

Hertz (Hz)

Frequency is measured in Hertz, which represents oscillations per second.

3multiple choice

For a simple pendulum, the time period depends on:

Show answer

Length of the string and acceleration due to gravity

The time period of a simple pendulum depends on its length and gravitational acceleration, not its mass.

4multiple choice

What happens to the total energy in an ideal Simple Harmonic Motion?

Show answer

It remains constant

In an ideal SHM without friction, the total mechanical energy remains constant, converting between kinetic and potential energy.
