Question 11

For a simple harmonic oscillator, the maximum acceleration is amaxa_{\text{max}}amax​ when the amplitude is AAA. The frequency of the oscillations is fff.

Which expression is correct for this oscillator?

amax=2πf2Aa_{\text{max}} = 2\pi f^2 Aamax​=2πf2A

amax=4π2fAa_{\text{max}} = 4\pi^2 f Aamax​=4π2fA

amax=4π2f2Aa_{\text{max}} = 4\pi^2 f^2 Aamax​=4π2f2A

amax=2πfAa_{\text{max}} = 2\pi f Aamax​=2πfA
