MHT CET Physics question

A particle performing linear S.H.M the kinematical equations of motion are not applied to solve the problems, of S.H.M. since

(A)velocity of the particle in linear S.H.M. is not uniform
(B)acceleration of the particle in linear S.H.M. is not uniformCorrect
(C)displacement of the particle in linear S.H.M. is proportional to force
(D)force acting on the particle is not uniform

Answer: (B)

Solution

The standard kinematic equations hold only for uniform (constant) acceleration, whereas in SHM the acceleration varies with displacement; non-uniform velocity (a) is true of any
