Question

A particle is performing SHM starting extreme position, graphical representation shows that between displacement and acceleration there is a phase difference of ______.

Options

• 0 rad

• `pi/4` rad

• `pi/2` rad

• π rad

Answer 1

A particle is performing SHM starting extreme position, graphical representation shows that between displacement and acceleration there is a phase difference of π rad.

Explanation:

The relation of displacement and acceleration with time in SHM are shown below,

Clearly, the phase difference between displacement and acceleration is π.
