A
Increase
a (a) In this case frequency of oscillation is given by
$n = \frac{1}{{2\pi }}\sqrt {\frac{{\sqrt {{g^2} + {a^2}} }}{l}} $ where $a$ is the acceleration of car. If $ a$ increases then $n$ also increases.

The plot of velocity $(v)$ versus displacement $(x)$ of a particle executing simple harmonic motion is shown in figure. The time period of oscillation of particle is .........
A particle executes simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of $4 \,cm$. At the mean position the velocity of the particle is $10\, cm/s$. The distance of the particle from the mean position when its speed becomes $5 \,cm/s$ is
A particle executes linear simple harmonic motion with an ampilitude of $3\,cm$ . When the particle is at $2\,cm$ from the mean position , the magnitude of its velocity is equal to that of its acceleration. Then its time period in seconds is
The period of oscillation of a mass $M$ suspended from a spring of negligible mass is $T$. If along with it another mass $M$ is also suspended , the period of oscillation will now be
The period of oscillation of a simple pendulum of length $L$ suspended from the roof of a vehicle which moves without friction down an inclined plane of inclination $\alpha$, is given by
