In this session G.S. Khairnar discussed the theory and MCQ’s of “Acceleration, Velocity and Displacement of SHM”. The session will be useful for all the aspirants of MHT-CET 2022. The session will be in Marathi and English.

Acceleration, Velocity and Displacement of SHM:-

Dear students in previous article we have learnt about the concept of linear simple harmonic motion and the differential equation of linear SHM. The differential equation for a particle of mass ‘m’ performing oscillatory motion is given as,

Where, x is displacement of particle and ω is angular frequency of SHM.

Using the above equation we are going to derive expressions for the acceleration, velocity and displacement of particle performing linear SHM.

Let’s derive the formulae for acceleration and velocity in linear SHM…….!

(1) Acceleration in SHM:-

We know the differential equation of SHM is,

From above equation we can conclude that acceleration in SHM is directly proportional to the displacement, and acts in opposite direction of displacement.

(2) Velocity in SHM:-

Using equation for acceleration, we can find out the velocity of particle in SHM as follows,

Then equation (2) becomes,

When particle is at extreme position, x=a and v=0, then value of C can be written as,

This is an equation for velocity of particle performing linear SHM, where is angular frequency.

(3) Displacement of particle in SHM

The velocity is rate of change of displacement.

Where   is constant off integration.

This is the equation of displacement of particle performing linear simple harmonic motion.

Maximum and minimum values for acceleration and velocity:-
