Dear Student,

  • In SHM, the velocity is maximum at the equilibrium position
  • Velocity is zero at the extreme position
  • Further if the velocity is maximum, the acceleration is zero, meaning that the acceleration is zero whenever the object is at the initial position or the displacement of the particle is zero
  • Acceleration is maximum at the extreme position as the displacement is maximum at the extreme position
