1. ⇒ (JEE Main 2023 (Online) 15th April Morning Shift)
In a linear Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM)
(A) Restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement.
(B) The acceleration and displacement are opposite in direction.
(C) The velocity is maximum at mean position.
(D) The acceleration is minimum at extreme points.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
A. (A), (B) and (D) only
B. (C) and (D) only
C. (A), (B) and (C) Only
D. (A), (C) and (D) only
Correct Answer is Option (C)
The correct options are:
(A) Restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement. - True (this is a defining
characteristic of SHM)
(B) The acceleration and displacement are opposite in direction. - True (the acceleration is
proportional to the displacement but in the opposite direction)
(C) The velocity is maximum at mean position. - True (the velocity is zero at the extreme
positions and reaches a maximum at the mean position)
(D) The acceleration is minimum at extreme points. - False (the acceleration is maximum at
the extreme points and zero at the mean position)

A particle executes S.H.M. of amplitude A along x-axis. At t = 0, the position of the particle is
and it moves along positive x-axis. The displacement
of particle in time t is , then the value of will be
A.
B.
C.
D.
Correct Answer is Option (D)
The initial condition states that the particle is at position at .
If we substitute these initial conditions into the equation for the displacement of the
particle:
We have:
Dividing both sides by gives us:
The angle whose sine is is radians (or 30 degrees).
Therefore, the correct answer is .
