MCQ
If the displacement equation of a particle be represented by $y = A\sin PT + B\cos PT$, the particle executes
  • A
    A uniform circular motion
  • B
    A uniform elliptical motion
  • A S.H.M.
  • D
    A rectilinear motion

Answer

Correct option: C.
A S.H.M.
c
(c) $y = A\sin PT + B\cos PT$
Let $A = r\cos \theta ,$ $B = r\sin \theta $
$ \Rightarrow y = r\sin (PT + \theta )$ which is the equation of $SHM.$
