Draw a graph of displacement varsus time...

Draw a graph of displacement varsus time as a function of time in simple harmonic motion.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Here, plots of the graph of x versus t, which gives the value of displacement as a continuous function of time. This displacement is `x(t)= A cos (omega t+ phi)`.
Where `A, omega" and "phi` are constants and they determine the characteristics of SHM.
Here, below graph of displacement as a continuous function of time for simple harmonic motion is shown in figure.

The meaning of standard symbols in equation `x(t)= A cos (omega t+phi)` of SHM are shown in below box.
x(t) = Displacement x as a function of time t, A= amplitude, `omega` = Angular frequency, `omega t+ phi` = Phase (time- dependent), `phi` = Phase constant.
