During the phenomenon of resonance
Show Hint
- the amplitude of oscillation becomes large
- the frequency of oscillation becomes large
- the time period of oscillation becomes large
- All of the above
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Resonance occurs when the frequency of the external force matches the natural frequency of the oscillating system. At this point, the system absorbs energy most efficiently. As energy is continually supplied at the resonant frequency, the amplitude of oscillation increases significantly. Therefore, the correct answer is (A). The frequency and time period do not change; only the amplitude becomes large.
Top Questions on Oscillations
The center of a disk of radius $ r $ and mass $ m $ is attached to a spring of spring constant $ k $, inside a ring of radius $ R>r $ as shown in the figure. The other end of the spring is attached on the periphery of the ring. Both the ring and the disk are in the same vertical plane. The disk can only roll along the inside periphery of the ring, without slipping. The spring can only be stretched or compressed along the periphery of the ring, following Hooke’s law. In equilibrium, the disk is at the bottom of the ring. Assuming small displacement of the disc, the time period of oscillation of center of mass of the disk is written as $ T = \frac{2\pi}{\omega} $. The correct expression for $ \omega $ is ( $ g $ is the acceleration due to gravity):
