Which option is not correct about free vibration analysis problem KX= λMX, where X represents the amplitude of displacement x?

(a) The displacements are harmonic

(b) X represent mode shapes or Eigen vectors

(c) λ represent Eigen value

(d) ω represents Eigen value

I had been asked this question in semester exam.

The question is from Eigen Value and Time Dependent Problems topic in chapter Single Variable Problems of Finite Element Method

Best answer
Right option is (d) ω represents Eigen value

The best explanation: In a free vibration analysis KX= λMX, the external load vector is zero and the displacements are harmonic x=Xe^iωt where X represents the amplitude of displacement x called Eigen vectors and λ= ω^2 represent Eigen value.
