The displacement of a particle along the 
‐axis is given by 
. The motion of the particle corresponds to
A
simple harmonic motion of frequency 
B
simple harmonic motion of frequency 
C
non-simple harmonic motion
D
simple harmonic motion of frequency 
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Velocity, 
Acceleration, 
For the given displacement 
is not satisfied.
Hence, the motion of the particle is non-simple harmonic motion.
Note: The given motion is a periodic motion with a time period
