Q. When an object is moving in simple harmonic motion, which of the following is at minimum when the displacement from equilibrium is zero?

NTA AbhyasNTA Abhyas 2022

Solution:

Acceleration is $a=-\omega ^{2}x$ , which is zero when displacement is zero.
Velocity and kinetic energy are maximum. Total mechanical energy is conserved.
