NEET Physics Simple Harmonic Motion MCQ Question
A block of mass 1 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant 50 N/m and is displaced by 0.1 m from its equilibrium position. What is the maximum acceleration of the block during its simple harmonic motion?
5 m/s²
10 m/s²
0.5 m/s²
25 m/s²
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The maximum acceleration is given by a_max = ω²A, where ω = sqrt(k/m). For k = 50 N/m and m = 1 kg, ω = sqrt(50), and a_max = ω² * 0.1 m = 10 m/s².
