AIPMT PRELIMS 2008 Physics Simple Harmonic Motion MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11
Two simple Harmonic Motions of angular frequency 100 and 1000 rad s⁻¹ have the same displacement amplitude. The ratio of their maximum accelerations is -
A
1 : 10³
B
1 : 10⁴
C
1 : 10
D
1 : 10²
Correct Answer
Option D
Detailed Explanation
Maximum acceleration in SHM is given by a_max = ω²A. The ratio of accelerations is the square of the ratio of angular frequencies.
