Edexcel A-Level Physics A2 5.5.146 Displacement Time Graphs for Oscillations Questions

Practise Edexcel A-Level Physics displacement-time graphs by sketching sinusoidal oscillations and reading amplitude, period and gradient.

Exam points

sketch sinusoidal displacement-time graphs with correct amplitude and period scales
interpret displacement-time graph gradient as velocity at a point in the oscillation

[Maximum number: 2]

A student set up a simple pendulum. The student used a velocity sensor connected to a data logger to record the velocity of the pendulum bob.

The graph shows how the velocity of the bob varied with time.

Add a line to the graph to show how the displacement of the bob varied with time during the same time interval.
