प्रश्न
For a particle executing simple harmonic motion, the acceleration is proportional to
पर्याय
displacement from the mean position
distance from the mean position
distance travelled since t = 0
speed

उत्तर
displacement from the mean position
For S.H.M.,
F = -kx
ma = - kx (F = ma)
or,
a =\[- \frac{k}{m}x\]
Thus, acceleration is proportional to the displacement from the mean position but in opposite direction.

In measuring time period of a pendulum, it is advised to measure the time between consecutive passage through the mean position in the same direction. This is said to result in better accuracy than measuring time between consecutive passage through an extreme position. Explain.
Can the potential energy in a simple harmonic motion be negative? Will it be so if we choose zero potential energy at some point other than the mean position?
