Motion in a Plane - Result Question 48
51. The circular motion of a particle with constant speed is
[2005]
(a) periodic but not simple harmonic
(b) simple harmonic but not periodic
(c) periodic and simple harmonic
(d) neither periodic nor simple harmonic
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: 51. (a)
Solution:
- (a) In circular motion of a particle with constant speed, particle repeats its motion after a regular interval of time but does not oscillate about a fixed point. So, motion of particle is periodic but not simple harmonic.
