Question
A particle is in linear simple harmonic motion between two points, A and B, 10cm apart. Take the direction from A to B as the positive direction and give the signs of velocity, acceleration and force on the particle when it is: At the end B.
From above figure, where A and B represent the two extreme positions of a SHM. For velocity, the direction from A to B is taken to b positive. The acceleration and the force, along AP are taken as positive and along Bp are taken as negative.
