MCQ
Select wrong statement about simple,harmonic motion
  • The body is uniformly accelerated
  • B
    The velocity of the body changes smoothly at all instants
  • C
    The amplitude of oscillation is symmetric about the equilibrium position
  • D
    The frequency of oscillation is independent of amplitude

Answer

Correct option: A.
The body is uniformly accelerated
a
(a)

In $S.H.M.$

$a=-\omega^2 x$

Thus acceleration varies linearly with time.
