Explain how an acceleration-displacement graph could be used to determine the frequency of oscillation of a metal plate.

Acceleration (A)= Angular Velocity2 (w2)Displacement (x)Angular Displacement= 2piFrequency (f)Gradient= A/x = w2 = [2pi*f]2Rearrange the equation to get - f= (sqrt)gradient/ 2pi
