Question

In simple harmonic motion, the acceleration is proportional to In simple harmonic motion, the acceleration is proportional to:_________.
a. the amplitude.
b. the velocity.
c. the frequency.
d. the displacement.
e. all of the above

Answer 1

Answer:

e. all of the above

Explanation:

In simple harmonic motion, the acceleration is given as;

a = -ω²x = -(2πf)²x

$a_{max} = -\omega ^2A$

where;

ω is the angular velocity

f is the frequency

x is the displacement

A is the amplitude

Thus, In simple harmonic motion, the acceleration is proportional to the amplitude, velocity, frequency, and displacement.

The correct option is E.

"all of the above"
