Physics-Simple Harmonic Motion
NEET Physics Simple Harmonic Motion Assertion Reason Question
Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Hard-Class 11
Assertion (A): In simple harmonic motion, the velocity of the particle is maximum at the mean position. | Reason (R): The force acting on the mass is proportional to the displacement and directed towards the mean position.
A
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
B
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
C
A is true but R is false.
D
A is false but R is true.
Correct Answer
Option B
Detailed Explanation
The velocity is maximum at the mean position because the displacement is zero, not due to the force proportionality. The reason describes the nature of force in SHM but does not explain the velocity behavior.
