The amplitude of a wave generally has no effect on the wave's period of oscillation.
If it did, then
-- As your wife walked away from you while talking, the pitch of her voice would drop steadily.
-- A pendulum pulled farther from equilibrium would swing faster or slower, and the pendulum
would be useless as a timing source.
-- As you drive further out in the country while listening to your favorite radio station
in the city, the station would slide down the radio dial, and you'd have to keep tuning
for it as it faded.

If the initial displacement from equilibrium amplitude is changed does the period of oscillation change?
Initial displacement has no effect on the period of oscillation. The period T = 2(pi)sqrt(mass/spring constant)
What is amplitude of oscillation?
The maximum distance that pendulum moves away from its position at rest is called the amplitude of oscillation.
Does amplitude effect the period of a pendulum?
no it doesnt affect the period of pendulum. the formulea that we know for simple pendulum is T = 2pie root (L/g)
What is the relation between time period and frequency of oscillation?
Time period and frequency are mutual reciprocals. T = 1/f F = 1/t
What is the amplitude when you are given the mass and period and position of the oscillator and the velocity of the oscillator?
amplitude is the maximum displacement right from the equilibrium position. It does not depend on the mass, period or velocity. Recall displacement at any instant t is y = A sin 2 pi f t or A sin 2 pi t/T f = frequency and T - time period.

What is the amplitude and period of f(t) -5 cos(8t)?
Amplitude = 5 Period = pi/4 radians (= 45 degrees).
What is the relation between time period and frequency of oscillation?
Time period and frequency are mutual reciprocals. T = 1/f F = 1/t
Pendulum oscillation period is equal to 0.5 s What is the pendulum oscillation frequency?
T=1/f .5=1/f f=2

amplitude is the maximum displacement right from the equilibrium position. It does not depend on the mass, period or velocity. Recall displacement at any instant t is y = A sin 2 pi f t or A sin 2 pi t/T f = frequency and T - time period.
A pendulum has a length L and time period T for completing one oscillation.?
Yes, you can label it that way.
What is the SI unit of period of oscillation?
The SI unit for period is seconds and the symbol is t (because the period is a time measurement, it is expressed in the SI unit seconds)
What mathematical relationship applies between the pendulum length and the oscillation period?
t = 2*pi*sqrt(l/g) Where t is the period, l is the length and g is the accelaration due to gravity.
What is the difference between the capital T and the lower case t in physics?
Capital T is used as the symbol for period, which is the time for an event to repeat itself. The symbol t represents time.
Write the equation to represent a damped oscillation?
(Amplitude)at time=t = (Max) x cos[ (2 pi x frequency) + (phase angle) ] x e-time/time constant
