The velocity of a particle performing simple harmonic motion, when it passes through its mean position is
Options
(a) Infinity
(b) Zero
(c) Minimum
(d) Maximum
Correct Answer:
Maximum
Explanation:
ν = ω √(a² – y²), At mean position y = 0
ν = ωa = This is the maximum velocity.

At mean position x=0
Therefore v=w(√a^2-0^2)
Therefore v=w(√a^2)=aw
Vmax=aw
