Question
Define acceleration in SHM.

Answer

Acceleration: The rate of change of velocity is acceleration.
$
\begin{aligned}
a & =\frac{d v}{d t}=\frac{d}{d t}( A \omega \cos \omega t) \\
& a=-\omega^2 A \sin \omega t=-\omega^2 y \\
\therefore \quad a & =\frac{d^2 y}{d t^2}=-\omega^2 y
\end{aligned}
