Question
Part A
If the amplitude of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled, by what multiplicative factor does the angular frequency change?
Part B
If the amplitude of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled, by what multiplicative factor does the frequency change?
Part C
If the amplitude of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled, by what multiplicative factor does the period change?
Part D
If the amplitude of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled, by what multiplicative factor does the maximum speed change?
Part E
If the amplitude of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled, by what multiplicative factor does the maximum acceleration change?
Part F
If the amplitude of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled, by what multiplicative factor does the total mechanical energy change?
Explanation / Answer
Part A:
A2 =2A1
Remains same.
Part B:
Remians same
Part C:
remians same
Part D:
v=Aw
Maximum speed is doubled
Part E:
a =Aw^2
Maximum acceleration is doubled.
Part F: 4 times increased.
W =(1/2)kA^2
Wf = 4Wi
