Question
A particle moves in a circular path with a continuously increasing speed. Its motion is
Options
periodic
oscillatory
simple harmonic
none of them
Advertisements
Solution
none of them
As the particle does not complete one rotation in a fixed interval of time, neither does it oscillate around a mean position.
