During the phenomenon of resonance
Options
- Athe amplitude of oscillation becomes large
- Bthe frequency of oscillation becomes large
- Cthe time period of oscillation becomes large
- DAll of the above
Correct answer
A. the amplitude of oscillation becomes large
Step-by-step solution
Resonance occurs when the driving frequency of an external periodic force matches the natural frequency of the system. Under this condition, the energy transfer from the driving force to the oscillator is maximized, leading to a significant increase in the amplitude of oscillation. The frequency and time period of the oscillation are determined by the system's natural properties and do not necessarily become large; rather, the system oscillates at its natural frequency with a greatly increased amplitude.
