Physics-Time Period & Frequency

NEET Physics Time Period & Frequency MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 11

Which of the following combinations about time period and frequency in oscillations is correct?

A

A large angular frequency corresponds to a small time period, and a stiff spring results in a high frequency.

B

The time period of a simple pendulum is independent of its mass, but depends on the length of the pendulum.

C

Damping increases the time period of an oscillator, making it oscillate slower.

D

The time period is directly proportional to the mass of the oscillator and inversely proportional to the spring constant.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

According to the provided context, a large angular frequency indeed corresponds to a small time period, and a stiff spring (high spring constant k) increases the frequency of oscillation.
