Question
The equation of motion of a particle is given as d²y/dt² + Ky = 0, where K is a positive constant. What is the period of the motion?
Correct Answer
Option C is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
The equation is of the form a = -ω²y. Comparing, ω² = K, so ω = √K. Period T = 2π/ω = 2π/√K.
Hint
ω² = K.
