6.10. Unit Test

This unit test covers the key concepts from Unit 6: Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM). You should expect both conceptual and calculation-based questions.

Instructions

  • Attempt all questions.
  • Show full working for calculation-based problems.
  • Use appropriate units in your answers.

Sample Questions

  1. A 0.5 kg mass on a spring oscillates with a period of 2 s. Find the spring constant.
  2. Describe the difference between simple harmonic motion and damped harmonic motion.
  3. A pendulum has a length of 1.2 m. Calculate its period near Earth’s surface.
  4. A 200 g mass oscillates with an amplitude of 0.05 m and angular frequency of 10 rad/s. Find its maximum speed.
  5. Explain a real-world application of SHM in engineering or daily life.

Submission
