A simple harmonic oscillator has an amplitude of 0 . 5 m and a time period of 2 seconds. What is the magnitude of acceleration when it is displaced from the mean position by 0 . 25 m ?

Question

A simple harmonic oscillator has an amplitude of 0 . 5 m and a time period of 2 seconds. What is the magnitude of acceleration when it is displaced from the mean position by 0 . 25 m ?, π 2 m s - 2, π 2 2 m s - 2, π 2 4 m s - 2, π 2 8 m s - 2

MARKS App · Accepted Answer

Magnitude of acceleration in terms of displacement is given by, a = ω 2 x ⇒ a = 2 π T 2 x ⇒ a = 2 π 2 2 × 0 . 25 = π 2 4
