SHMHard
Question
If y, v and a represent displacement, velocity and acceleration at any instant for a particle executing SHM, which of the following statements are true?
Options
A.v and y may have same direction
B.v and y may have same direction
C.a and y may have same direction
D.a and v may have opposite direction
Solution
In S.H.M direction of v and a may be same or opposite and also direction of y and v may be same but direction of a and y never same because a = −ω2y (always opposite to y).
