Exam-style question
Try this first
What is the relationship between the period (T) and the angular frequency (ω) in simple harmonic motion?.
- A.T = ω^2
- B.T = 2π/ω
- C.T = ω/2π
- D.T = 2πω
Model answer
What a good answer should say
- T = 2π/ω
Explanation
Why this works
The period (T) of a simple harmonic oscillator is inversely related to the angular frequency (ω) by the formula T = 2π/ω, indicating that as angular frequency increases, the period decreases.
