FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM)?
Back
Simple Harmonic Motion is a type of periodic motion where an object moves back and forth around an equilibrium position, and the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement from that position.
2.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the formula for the period (T) of a simple harmonic oscillator?
Back
T = 2π√(m/k), where m is the mass and k is the spring constant.
3.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the relationship between frequency (f) and period (T)?
Back
f = 1/T, where f is the frequency in hertz and T is the period in seconds.
4.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How does the length of a pendulum affect its period?
Back
The period of a pendulum increases with the length; specifically, T = 2π√(L/g), where L is the length and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the unit of frequency?
Back
The unit of frequency is hertz (Hz), which is equivalent to cycles per second.
6.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the amplitude of a simple harmonic oscillator?
Back
Amplitude is the maximum displacement from the equilibrium position in simple harmonic motion.
7.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the restoring force in SHM?
Back
The restoring force is the force that brings the object back towards the equilibrium position, proportional to the displacement.
