उत्तर
ax = – 2x.
Explanation:
In simple harmonic motion, acceleration is proportional and opposite to displacement. Applying the equation of motion
F = ma
a = − ω2x
a ∝− x
Hence − 2x represents SHM.

When the length of a simple pendulum is decreased by 20 cm, the period changes by 10%. Find the original length of the pendulum.
A spring having with a spring constant 1200 N m–1 is mounted on a horizontal table as shown in Fig. A mass of 3 kg is attached to the free end of the spring. The mass is then pulled sideways to a distance of 2.0 cm and released.
Determine (i) the frequency of oscillations, (ii) maximum acceleration of the mass, and (iii) the maximum speed of the mass.
let us take the position of mass when the spring is unstretched as x = 0, and the direction from left to right as the positive direction of the x-axis. Give x as a function of time t for the oscillating mass if at the moment we start the stopwatch (t = 0), the mass is
(a) at the mean position,
(b) at the maximum stretched position, and
(c) at the maximum compressed position.

Answer the following questions:
A time period of a particle in SHM depends on the force constant k and mass m of the particle: `T = 2pi sqrt(m/k)` A simple pendulum executes SHM approximately. Why then is the time
Answer the following questions:
The motion of a simple pendulum is approximately simple harmonic for small angle oscillations. For larger angles of oscillation, a more involved analysis shows that T is greater than `2pisqrt(1/g)` Think of a qualitative argument to appreciate this result.
A simple pendulum of length l and having a bob of mass M is suspended in a car. The car is moving on a circular track of radius R with a uniform speed v. If the pendulum makes small oscillations in a radial direction about its equilibrium position, what will be its time period?
A mass attached to a spring is free to oscillate, with angular velocity ω, in a horizontal plane without friction or damping. It is pulled to a distance x0 and pushed towards the centre with a velocity v0 at time t = 0. Determine the amplitude of the resulting oscillations in terms of the parameters ω, x0 and v0. [Hint: Start with the equation x = acos (ωt+θ) and note that the initial velocity is negative.]
