Questions
A particle is acted simultaneously by mutually perpendicular simple harmonic motion x = a cos t and y = a sin t. The trajectory of motion of the particle will be
detailed solution
Correct option is C
Given, x = a cos ωt …(i) y=a sin ωt …(ii)Squaring and adding Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get x2+y2=a2 (∵ cos2ωt + sin2 ωt=1)This is the equation of a circle.Clearly, the locus is a circle of constant radius a.Talk to our academic expert!
