$Assertion :$ In simple harmonic motion, the motion is to and fro and periodic
$Reason :$ Velocity of the particle $(v) = \omega \sqrt {k^2 - x^2}$ (where $x$ is the displacement).

SHM is to and fro motion of an object and it is periodic. $v = \omega \sqrt {k^2 - x^2}$ If $x = 0, v$ has maximum value. At $x = k, v$ has minimum velocity. Similarly, when $x = -k, v$ has zero value, all these indicate to and fro movement.

A particle executes simple harmonic motion. Its amplitude is $8 \,cm$ and time period is $6 \,s$. The time it will take to travel from its position of maximum displacement to the point corresponding to half of its amplitude, is ............. $s$
A bar of mass $m$ is suspended horizontally on two vertical springs of spring constant $k$ and $3k$ . The bar bounces up and down while remaining horizontal. Find the time period of oscillation of the bar (Neglect mass of springs and friction everywhere).
The displacement time graph of a particle executing $S.H.M.$ is given in figure: (sketch is schematic and not to scale) Which of the following statements is are true for this motion?
$(A)$ The force is zero $t=\frac{3 T}{4}$
$(B)$ The acceleration is maximum at $t=T$
$(C)$ The speed is maximum at $t =\frac{ T }{4}$

A particle is executing $S.H.M.$ with total mechanical energy $90 \,J$ and amplitude $6 \,cm$. If its energy is somehow decreased to $40 \,J$ then its amplitude will become ........ $cm$
A mass $m$ is attached to two springs of same force constant $K$, as shown in following four arrangements. If $T_1, T_2, T_3$ and $T_4$ respectively be the time periods of oscillation in the following arrangements, in which case time period is maximum?
The graphs in figure show that a quantity $y$ varies with displacement $d$ in a system undergoing simple harmonic motion. Which graphs best represents the relationship obtained when $y$ is The total energy of the system
A ball is rolling without slipping in a spherical shallow bowl (radius $R$ ) as shown in the figure and is executing simple harmonic motion. If the radius of the ball is doubled, then the time period of oscillation
A body is executing simple harmonic motion of amplitude $a$ and period $T$ about the equilibrium position $x=0$. Large numbers of snapshots are taken at random of this body in motion. The probability of the body being found in a very small interval $x$ to $x+|d x|$ is highest at
