AIIMS 2002 Physics Simple Harmonic Motion Assertion Reason Question
Type: Assertion Reason-conceptual-Medium-Class 11
Assertion : In simple harmonic motion, the motion is to and fro and periodic.
Reason : Velocity of the particle (v) = ω√(k² − x²) (where x is the displacement).
A
Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
B
Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
C
Assertion is true but Reason is false.
D
Both Assertion and Reason are false.
Correct Answer
Option B
Detailed Explanation
A particle is said to execute simple harmonic motion, if it moves to and fro about a fixed point under the action of a restoring force which is directly proportional to its displacement from the fixed point and is always directed towards the fixed point.
