Card 1 of 21

What two conditions must acceleration satisfy for motion to be simple harmonic?

A
  • Directly proportional to displacement.
  • Directed away from equilibrium (same as displacement).
B
  • Directly proportional to displacement.
  • Directed towards equilibrium (opposite to displacement).
C
  • Inversely proportional to displacement.
  • Directed towards equilibrium (opposite to displacement).
D
  • Directly proportional to velocity.
  • Directed towards equilibrium (opposite to displacement).
