Ratio of maximum acceleration to the maximum velocity of a simple harmonic oscillator is

  1. A \(\omega\)
  2. B \(\frac{\omega}{2}\)
  3. C \(\omega^2\)
  4. D \(2 \omega\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\omega\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For SHM, we know that, Maximum acceleration, \(\left|a_{\max }\right|=\omega^2 A\) Maximum velocity, \(\left|v_{\max }\right|=\omega A\) where, \(\omega=\) angular velocity/frequency \(A=\) amplitude \(\therefore\) According to question, the ratio is…
