MCQ
A particle moving along the $X-$axis executes simple harmonic motion, then the force acting on it is given by

Where $A$ and $K$ are positive constants

  • $-A Kx$
  • B
    $A cos (Kx)$
  • C
    $A exp (-Kx)$
  • D
    $A Kx $

Answer

Correct option: A.
$-A Kx$
a
(a) For $S.H.M.$ $F = - kx.$
 Force = Mass $×$ Acceleration $\propto -x$
==> $F = -Akx;$ where $A$ and $k$ are positive constants.

A ball falls vertically downward and bounces off a horizontal floor.The speed of the ball just before reaching the floor $\left(u_1\right)$ is equal to the speed just after leaving contact with the floor $\left(u_2\right), u_1=u_2$. The corresponding magnitudes of accelerations are denoted respectively by $a_1$ and $a_2$. The air resistance during motion is proportional to speed and is not negligible. If $g$ is acceleration due to gravity, then
