the resultant of two rectangular SHMs of same frequency and unequal amplitudes but differing by phase pi/2 is: a. simple harmonic b. circular c. elliptical d. parabolic
Hello,
The combined equation of two SHM's in perpendicular distances is (x^2/(A1)^2) + (y^2/(A2)^2).So the answer is elliptical.
Hope this helps you.
