Class 11PhysicsOscillationsPeriodic, Oscillatory motion and its characteristics and types of SHM and Equation of SHM
DifficultDefine the amplitude of $SHM$.
(N/A) The amplitude of $SHM$ (Simple Harmonic Motion) is defined as the maximum displacement of the oscillating particle from its mean or equilibrium position.
It represents the extent of the motion on either side of the equilibrium point.
Mathematically,if the displacement of a particle in $SHM$ is given by $x(t) = A \sin(\omega t + \phi)$,then $A$ is the amplitude of the motion.
The $SI$ unit of amplitude is the meter $(m)$.
