Average velocity of a particle performing shm in one time period is? |
|
Answer» SIMPLE harmonic motion can be expressed as follow: y=a*cos(W*t) where w is angular acceleration and w=2*pi/T So, when we differentiate the above equation we get expression of VELOCITY given by: v=-a*w*sin(w*t) For a complete TIME period, t=T So, The average velocity= -a*w*(average of sin(w*t) over time period T) Average of Sin function over a complete cycle=0 Therefore, The average velocity of a particle performing S.H.M. in one time period is 0. |
