Simple Harmonic Motion — JEE physics STD 12 Science — Question

CBSE BoardEnglish MediumSTD 12 ScienceJEE physicsSimple Harmonic Motion1 Mark
Question
Assertion : Acceleration is proportional to the displacement. This condition is not sufficient for motion in simple harmonic.
Reason : In simple harmonic motion direction of displacement is also considered.
✓

Answer

(a) In SHM, the acceleration is always in a direction opposite to that of the displacement i.e., proportional to $(-y)$.
