In Perpendicular Direction…

In Perpendicular Direction – Suppose the first force produces a SHM in X-direction given by x = A1 sin ωt and the second produces a SHM in Y-direction given by
y = A2 sin (ωt + δ)
The resultant path of the particle is an ellipse is given by The ellipse is traced inside the rectangle of sides 2A1 and 2A2 touching all its four sides.
