Displacement versus time curve for a particle executing SHM is as shown in figure. At what points the velocity of the particle is zero?

A
A, C, E
B
B, D, F
C
A, D, F
D
C, E, F
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
In SHM, the velocity is zero when the particle is at the extreme position (i.e., displacement is maximum) and velocity is maximum when the particle is at the mean position (i.e., displacement is zero). Thus, the velocity of the particle is zero at points A, C, E and maximum at points B, D, F.
