Question

An object in simple harmonic motion is observed to move between a maximum position and a minimum position.The minimum time that elapses between the object being at itsmaximum position and when it returns to that maximum position is equal to which of the following parameters?a) frequencyb) angular frequencyc) periodd) amplitudee) wavelength

Answer 1

Option (c)

Step-by-step explanation:

The time taken by the object to move from maximum position to return to the same maximum position is called time period.

The time required to complete one oscillation is also called as time period.

Answer 2

Answer:c

Step-by-step explanation:

When an object is performing simple harmonic motion then time period is given by measuring the time period take by object to return its initial position.

Thus we can say that it also valid for maximum position thus period is the correct is answer for this problem.

Time Period of oscillation for spring mass system is

`T=2\pi \sqrt{(m)/(k)}`
