Question

Which one of the following statements is truefor the speed 'v' and the acceleration 'a' of aparticle executing simple harmonic motion

• A. Value of a is zero, whatever may be the value of 'v'
• B. When 'v' is zero, a is zero
• C. When 'v' is maximum, a is zero
• D. When 'v' is maximum, a is maximum

Answer 1

The correct option is C When 'v' is maximum, a is zero

$INSHMifv=v_{max}thena=0$
$v=0thena=a_{max}$
