Dynamicss Quiz: SHM and Projectile Motion

The motion of the particle from one extremity to the other extremity of its path is called:

• Displacement

• Oscillation

• Vibration

• A to-and-fro motion

One complete motion of the particle from a point on its path to one extremity, then to the other extremity and back to the point is called an:

• Oscillation

• Amplitude

• Period

• Cycle

The maximum distance through which the particle moves on either side of the mean position is called:

• Frequency

• Wavelength

• Amplitude

• Phase

In an oscillation, the particle travels a distance equal to:

• One time amplitude

• Two times amplitude

• Three times amplitude

• Four times amplitude

The time taken by the particle to make one oscillation is called the:

• Frequency

• Cycle

• Period

• Duration

In a simple harmonic motion, maximum velocity is given by:

• aω

• ω/a

• a/ω

• ω²a

If the displacement of the particle is x = a cos(nt + ε), then nt + ε is called:

• Angular velocity

• Frequency

• Phase

• Displacement

The equation of simple harmonic motion is:

• a = -ω²x

• a = ω²x

• F = -kx

• x = acos(nt + ε)

The period of simple harmonic motion is given by T =

• 2π√(k/m)

• 2π√(m/k)

• 1/2π√(m/k)

• k/m

The amplitude of S.H.M is the value of x, when:

• Velocity is maximum

• Acceleration is zero

• Acceleration is maximum

• Displacement is zero
