Which of the following is not an example of approximate simple harmonic motion? A. a ball bouncing on the floor
B. swinging chandeliers
C. oscillations of air molecules that transmit sound
D. oscillations of electrons in the antennas of radio and TV transmitters

Answer:

Answer to this question is (A)

Explanation

A ball bouncing on the floor is not the example of simple harmonic motion. SHM is the special kind of to and fro motion in which a particle oscillate about its mean position in a straight line. The acceleration of the particle is always directed towards its mean position and is directly proportional to its displacement from its mean position.

In case of a ball bouncing on the ground, the motion of the ball is not SHM, as neither it’s a to and fro motion nor the acceleration is proportional to its displacement from its mean position.


Answer:

A) A ball bouncing is not a simple harmonic motion
