Question

define Amplitude in SHM​

Answer 1

Answer:

amplitude (A) maximum displacement from the equilibrium position of an object oscillating around the equilibrium position equilibrium position position where the spring is neither stretched nor compressed force constant (k) characteristic of a spring which is defined as the ratio of the force applied to the spring

Answer 2

• Definition – The linear periodic motion of a body in which the restoring force is always directed towards the equilibrium position or mean position and its magnitude is directly proportional to the displacement from the equilibrium position. Also, all simple harmonic motions are periodic in nature, but all periodic motions are not simple harmonic motions.

a = F/m = – kx/m = – ω2x

Here, k/m = ω2 (ω is the angular frequency of the body)

• Amplitude :- The maximum displacement of a particle from its equilibrium position or mean position is its amplitude, and its direction is always away from the mean or equilibrium position. Its S.I. unit is the meter, and the dimensions are [L1M0 T0].
