NEET Physics Time Period & Frequency MCQ Question
Which of the following statements about time period and frequency in oscillations is correct?
A shorter time period corresponds to a higher frequency of oscillation.
The time period decreases with an increase in mass of the oscillating object.
Frequency is independent of the stiffness of the spring used in oscillations.
A longer time period indicates a smaller amplitude of oscillation.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
According to the NCERT context, a large angular frequency and hence a small period is associated with a stiff spring and a light block. This implies that a shorter time period corresponds to a higher frequency of oscillation.
