In simple harmonic motion the position of the oscillator:
A) Leads its acceleration by a half cycle,or $\pi$ radians
B) Leads its velocity by a half cycle,or $\pi$ radians
C) Is in phase with its acceleration
D) Is in phase with its velocity

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In simple harmonic motion, the acceleration is proportional to the negative of the displacement, meaning they are out of phase by $\pi$ radians or a half cycle.
