Question
A particle is performing a linear simple harmonic motion. If the acceleration and the corresponding velocity of the particle are a and v respectively, which of the following graphs is correct?
Options:
Answer: Option A
:
C
If a particle performs SHM with angular frequency 'ω' and amplitude 'A',then its displacement from mean position will be equal to x=Asinωt, if its initial phase is equal to zero.
Velocity will be equal to
v=dxdt=Aωcosωt(1) and acceleration will be α=dvdt=Aω2sin(ωt) (2)
From these equations, cosωt=vAω,sinωt=αAω2
Squaring and adding, v2A2ω2+α2A2ω4=1
If v is taken on the y-axis and α on the x-axis, then it will be an ellipse
