Question

What is meaning of in phase and out of phase in simple harmonic motion?

Answer 1

Phase is the position of a point in time (an instant) on a waveform cycle. ... In sinusoidal functions or in waves, "phase" has two different, but closely related, meanings. One is the initial angle of a sinusoidal function at its origin and is sometimes called phase offset or phase difference.
