Frequency is defined as the number of oscillations done by an object per second.

The amplitude of motion can be defined as the maximum distance that an object travels before coming back to its original position.

The period can be defined as the time taken required to complete one cycle or oscillation.

Angular frequency is a quantity that measures how quickly an object oscillates with respect to time.

The given figure shows one complete cycle for the object. Thus, the period for one complete cycle from the graph is

T = 16 s

The relation between frequency and time period is given by,

_{$f=\frac{1}{T}$}

Substitute value of in above expression to get frequency

$$\begin{gathered} f=\frac{1}{16s} \\ =0.0625Hz \\ =62.5×{10}^{-3}Hz \end{gathered}$$

Therefore, the frequency is $62.5×{10}^{-3}Hz$.

(b) It is given that the object travels from - 10 cm to +10 cm . Thus, its amplitude is the maximum distance its travels from the equilibrium position.

Therefore, the amplitude is 10 cm .

(c) In part (a), the time period was calculated as

T = 16 s

Therefore, the time period is 16 s .

The relation between angular frequency and time period is given by,

$\mathrm{Ó\neg }=\frac{2\mathrm{Ï€}}{\mathrm{T}}$

Substitute the values of time period to get angular frequency

$$\begin{gathered} \mathrm{Ó\neg }=\frac{2\mathrm{Ï€}}{16s} \\ =0.39rad/s \end{gathered}$$

Therefore, the angular frequency is0.39 rad/s .
