To determine the angular frequency from a graph, you can find the period of the wave by measuring the distance between two consecutive peaks or troughs. Then, you can calculate the angular frequency using the formula: angular frequency 2 / period.

To determine the natural frequency from a graph, identify the peak point on the graph which represents the highest amplitude or resonance. The frequency corresponding to this peak point is the natural frequency of the system.
In a physical system, the wavenumber k can be determined by dividing the angular frequency by the speed of the wave. The formula is k /v, where k is the wavenumber, is the angular frequency, and v is the speed of the wave.
To determine the damped natural frequency from a graph, one can identify the peak of the response curve and measure the time it takes for the amplitude to decrease to half of that peak value. The damped natural frequency can then be calculated using the formula: damped natural frequency 1 / (2 damping ratio time to half amplitude).
Angular speed is a measure of how quickly an object rotates around a fixed point. It is typically measured in radians per second and describes the rate at which the object changes its angular position. It is analogous to linear speed but involves rotational motion instead.
The period of a harmonic oscillator is the time it takes for one complete cycle of motion, while the angular frequency is the rate at which the oscillator oscillates in radians per second. The relationship between the period and angular frequency is that they are inversely proportional: as the angular frequency increases, the period decreases, and vice versa. This relationship is described by the equation T 2/, where T is the period and is the angular frequency.
