Assertion : Acceleration is proportional...

Assertion : Acceleration is proportional to the displacement. This condition is not sufficient for motion in simple harmonic.
Reason : In simple harmonic motion direction of displacement is also considered.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If the assertion and reason both are false

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
In SHM, the acceleration is always in a direction opposite to that of the displacement i.e., proportional to (-y).
