A) simple harmonic motion of frequency\[\omega /\pi \]
B) simple harmonic motion of frequency\[3\omega /2\pi \]
C) non simple harmonic motion
D) simple harmonic motion of frequency\[\omega /2\pi \]
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
For a particle executing SHM acceleration \[(a)\propto -{{\omega }^{2}}\]displacement \[(x)\]? (i) Given \[x=a{{\sin }^{2}}\omega t\] ...(ii) Differentiating the above equation w.r.t., we get \[\frac{dx}{dt}=2a\omega (sin\omega t)(cos\omega t)\] Again differentiating, we get \[\frac{{{d}^{2}}x}{d{{t}^{2}}}=a=2a{{\omega }^{2}}[co{{s}^{2}}\omega t-si{{n}^{2}}\omega t]\] \[=2a{{\omega }^{2}}\cos 2\,\omega t\] The given equation does not satisfy the condition for SHM [Eq. (i)]. Therefore, motion is not simple harmonic.
