MCQ
The phase of a particle executing simple harmonic motion is $\frac{\pi }{2}$ when it has
  • A
    Maximum velocity
  • B
    Maximum acceleration
  • C
    Maximum displacement
  • Both (b) and (c)

Answer

Correct option: D.
Both (b) and (c)
d
(d) For $S.H.M.$ displacement $y = a\sin \omega \,t$ and acceleration $A = \, - {\omega ^2}y\sin \omega \,t$ these are maximum at $\omega \,t = \frac{\pi }{2}.$
