Out of the following functions representing motion of a particle which represents SHM I. y=sin⁡ωt−cos⁡ωty=\sin \omega t-\cos \omega t II. y=sin⁡3ωty=\sin ^3 \omega t III. y=5cos⁡y=5 \cos\left(\frac{3 \pi}{4}-3 \omega t\right)IV.IV.y=1+\omega t+\omega^2 t^2

Options

  1. AOnly (IV) does not represent SHM
  2. B(I) and (III)
  3. C(I) and (II)
  4. DOnly (I)

Correct answer

B. (I) and (III)

Step-by-step solution

For a simple harmonic motion d2ydt2∝−y\frac{d^2 y}{d t^2} \propto-y Hence, equation y=sin⁡ωt−cos⁡ωtandy=\sin \omega t-\cos \omega t andy=5 \cos (3π4−3ωt)\left(\frac{3 \pi}{4}-3 \omega t\right) are satisfying this condition and equation y=1+ωt+ω2t2y=1+\omega t+\omega^2 t^2 is not periodic and y=sin⁡3ωty=\sin ^3 \omega t is periodic but not SHM. Option (3) is correct
