Physics-Simple Harmonic Motion

NEET Physics Simple Harmonic Motion MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11

A simple pendulum with a mass of 5 kg is oscillating with a small angular displacement. If the length of the pendulum is 2 meters and the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s², what is the approximate angular frequency of the pendulum's simple harmonic motion?

A

21 rad/s

B

13 rad/s

C

57 rad/s

D

05 rad/s

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The angular frequency ω of a simple pendulum is given by ω = √(g/L). For g = 9.8 m/s² and L = 2 m, ω = √(9.8/2) = √4.9 ≈ 2.21 rad/s.
