If the frequency of a system undergoing simple harmonic motion doubles, by what factor does the maximum value of acceleration change?
A) 4
B) 2
C) $\sqrt { 2 }$
D) 2/π

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The maximum acceleration in simple harmonic motion is proportional to the square of the frequency. If the frequency doubles, the maximum acceleration increases by a factor of $2^2 = 4$.

If the Frequency of a System Undergoing Simple Harmonic Motion 2\sqrt { 2 }2​

If the Frequency of a System Undergoing Simple Harmonic Motion $\sqrt { 2 }$
