The displacement of a particle varies with time according to the relation y = a sin ωt + b cos ωt.

(a) The motion is oscillatory but not S.H.M.

(b) The motion is S.H.M. with amplitude a + b.

(c) The motion is S.H.M. with amplitude a2 + b2.

(d) The motion is S.H.M. with amplitude a 2 + b 2 .

This is a multiple choice answer as classified in NCERT Exemplar

(d) y= asinwt + bcoswt

a=Asin and b= Acos

a2+b2=A2sin2 +A2cos2

A= a 2 + b 2

y=Asin s i n w t +Acos c o s w t

= Asin (wt+ )

dy/dt= Awcos (wt+ )

d 2 y d t 2 = - A w 2 s i n w t + = - A y w 2

So it is proportional to displacement . so follows SHM
