MCQ
To make the frequency double of an oscillator, we have to
- ADouble the mass
- BHalf the mass
- CQuadruple the mass
- ✓Reduce the mass to one-fourth
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
Reduce the mass to one-fourth
(d) $\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}} \Rightarrow \frac{\omega_2}{\omega_1}=\sqrt{\frac{m_1}{m_2}} \Rightarrow 2=\sqrt{\frac{m_1}{m_2}} \Rightarrow m_2=\frac{m_1}{4}$
