1.	Whichof the followng relationships between the acceleration a and the displacement x of a particle involve simple harmonic motion? a= - 10x
Answer» Solution :There are two conditions for particle executes SHM. (i) Acceleration is directly PROPORTIONAL to displacement. Acceleration is always TOWARDS mean position `therefore " Acceleration " a= - omega^(2)x` `a= 10x` This GIVEN relation is fit with `a= -omega^(2)x` HENCE it indicates SHM.
