NEET Physics Time Period & Frequency MCQ Question
Consider a simple harmonic oscillator whose displacement varies with time as x(t) = A cos(ωt + φ). Which of the following correctly describes the relationship between the time period (T) and the frequency (ν) of this motion?

ν = 1/T
T = 2π/ν
ν = T²
T = ν
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The reciprocal of the time period (T) gives the frequency (ν) of the periodic motion, as described by the relation ν = 1/T.
