MCQ
If a particle is executing simple harmonic motion, then acceleration of particle
  • A
    Is uniform
  • B
    Varies linearly with time
  • Is non uniform
  • D
    Both $(b)$ and $(c)$

Answer

Correct option: C.
Is non uniform
c
(c)

If a particle is executing S.H.M.

$a \alpha-\omega^2 x$

Hence it is not uniform and depends on $x$ rather than time.

Hence answer is $(c)$.
