Question

For a particle undergoing simple harmonic motion, the velocity is plotted against displacement. The curve will be
  1. a parabola
  2. a straight line
  3. a circle
  4. an ellipse

A
a straight line
B
a parabola
C
a circle
D
an ellipse
Solution
Verified by Toppr

v=ωA2x2
v2ω2+x2(1)2=A2
Hence vx graph is an ellipse.
