In a simple harmonic motion with a radius xo, the velocity of the particle at any point is:

Correct answer: A. A

  • A. A
  • B. B
  • C. C
  • D. D

Explanation

In a simple harmonic motion, the velocity of the particle at any point can be expressed as: v = ω√(xo² - x²)Where,v is the velocity of the particle,ω is the angular frequency of the motion,xo is the amplitude or maximum displacement of the motion, andx is the displacement of the particle from the equilibrium position

About Simple Harmonic Motion

Simple harmonic motion is oscillation in which acceleration is directly proportional to displacement and directed toward the equilibrium position. Work includes displacement, velocity, acceleration, phase, period, frequency, amplitude and energy, with applications to springs and simple pendulums. The restoring force and the conditions for SHM distinguish it from general periodic motion.
