प्रश्न
The relation between acceleration and displacement of four particles are given below: Which one of the particles is executing simple harmonic motion?
पर्याय
ax = + 2x.
ax = + 2x2.
ax = – 2x2.
ax = – 2x.
उत्तर
ax = – 2x.
Explanation:
In simple harmonic motion, acceleration is proportional and opposite to displacement. Applying the equation of motion
F = ma
a = − ω2x
a ∝− x
Hence − 2x represents SHM.

A mass attached to a spring is free to oscillate, with angular velocity ω, in a horizontal plane without friction or damping. It is pulled to a distance x0 and pushed towards the centre with a velocity v0 at time t = 0. Determine the amplitude of the resulting oscillations in terms of the parameters ω, x0 and v0. [Hint: Start with the equation x = acos (ωt+θ) and note that the initial velocity is negative.]
