Question
The distance moved by a particle in simple harmonic motion in one time period is
Options
A
2A
4A
zero
Advertisements
Solution
4A
In an oscillation, the particle goes from one extreme position to other extreme position that lies on the other side of mean position and then returns back to the initial extreme position. Thus, total distance moved by particle is,
2A + 2A = 4A.
