Its new period is:The phase difference between displacement $x$ and velocity $v$ in SHM is:A spring of force constant $k$ is cut into two equal halves. The force constant of each half is:Two springs of constants $k_1$ and $k_2$ connected in **series** have effective spring constant:If $x_1 = A in(\omega t)$ and $x_2 = A in(\omega t + \pi/3)$, the resultant amplitude of $x_1 + x_2$ is:Maximum acceleration in SHM ($A = $ amplitude, $\omega = $ angular frequency) is:In a damped oscillator $\ddot x + 2\gamma\dot x + \omega_0^2 x = 0$, the **amplitude decays** as:A particle in SHM has displacement $x = a\cos(\omega t) + b in(\omega t)$. The amplitude of motion is:A simple pendulum oscillates in a lift accelerating UPWARD with acceleration $a$. The effective time period beTwo identical pendulums of length $L$ are connected by a light spring. They oscillate **in opposite phases** (A block of mass $m$ on a smooth horizontal surface is attached to two walls by springs of constant $k_1$ and $A particle performs SHM along x-axis with amplitude $A$ and period $T$. The time taken from $x = 0$ to $x = A/A particle in SHM has a maximum speed of 30 cm/s and a maximum acceleration of 90 cm/s².
