Question 1
The energy of a Simple Harmonic oscillation depends upon the:
Correct Answer Explanation
Total energy of a simple harmonic oscillator: $E = \dfrac{1}{2}k A^2 = \dfrac{1}{2}m\omega^2 A^2$. The energy is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude $A$. It does not depend on frequency or time period independently.
