Question

which of the following quantity of a simple harmonic motion
does not sinusoidally with time?
a) Displacement
b) Velocity
c) Acceleration
d) Total energy​

Answer 1

Answer:

cb velocity is the correct answer

Answer 2

Option D is correct.

Explanation:

• During simple harmonic motion of particle.

        Its displacement from mean position is in sinusoidal nature.

• On differentiating displacement with respect to time give us velocity equation. It is also in sinusoidal nature.

• On differentiating velocity with respect to time give us acceleration equation. It is also in sinusoidal nature.
• From law of conservation of energy , its total energy is constant at any point and any time. Its total energy is sum of kinetic energy and potential energy.
• From above it is clear that displacement, velocity and acceleration is in sinusoidal nature. While energy is not in sinusoidal nature. So option D is correct.
