The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze how doubling the amplitude of a particle executing Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM) affects various quantities: time period, maximum velocity, maximum acceleration, and total energy. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Initial Conditions**: - Let the initial amplitude be \( A = a \). - The new amplitude after doubling is \( A' = 2a \). 2. **Time Period**: - The time period \( T \) of SHM is given by the formula: \[ T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}} \] - Here, \( T \) does not depend on the amplitude \( A \). Therefore, when the amplitude is doubled, the time period remains unchanged: \[ T' = T \] - **Conclusion**: The time period is not doubled. 3. **Maximum Velocity**: - The maximum velocity \( V_{\text{max}} \) in SHM is given by: \[ V_{\text{max}} = A \omega \] - Where \( \omega \) is the angular frequency, defined as: \[ \omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}} \] - If we double the amplitude: \[ V_{\text{max}}' = A' \omega = (2a) \omega = 2(A \omega) = 2V_{\text{max}} \] - **Conclusion**: The maximum velocity is doubled. 4. **Maximum Acceleration**: - The maximum acceleration \( a_{\text{max}} \) in SHM is given by: \[ a_{\text{max}} = A \omega^2 \] - Doubling the amplitude gives: \[ a_{\text{max}}' = A' \omega^2 = (2a) \omega^2 = 2(A \omega^2) = 2a_{\text{max}} \] - **Conclusion**: The maximum acceleration is doubled. 5. **Total Energy**: - The total energy \( E \) in SHM is given by: \[ E = \frac{1}{2} k A^2 \] - If the amplitude is doubled: \[ E' = \frac{1}{2} k (2a)^2 = \frac{1}{2} k (4a^2) = 4 \left(\frac{1}{2} k a^2\right) = 4E \] - **Conclusion**: The total energy is quadrupled, not doubled. ### Summary of Results: - (i) Time period: Not doubled - (ii) Maximum velocity: Doubled - (iii) Maximum acceleration: Doubled - (iv) Total energy: Quadrupled ### Final Answer: The quantities that are doubled when the amplitude is doubled are: - Maximum velocity - Maximum acceleration
