JEE Main & Advanced Physics Simple Harmonic Motion Question Bank Velocity of Simple Harmonic Motion

  • question_answer
    A particle executing simple harmonic motion has an amplitude of 6 cm. Its acceleration at a distance of 2 cm from the mean position is \[8\,cm/{{s}^{2}}\]. The maximum speed of the particle is          [EAMCET (Engg.) 2000]

    A)            8 cm/s                                     

    B)            12 cm/s

    C)            16 cm/s                                  

    D)            24 cm/s

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                       \[A={{\omega }^{2}}y\] Þ \[\omega =\sqrt{A/y}=\sqrt{\frac{8}{2}}=2\,rad/sec\] Now \[{{v}_{\max }}=a\omega =6\times 2=12\,cm/sec\]
