$A$ point mass oscillates along the $x$-axis according to the law $x=x_0 \cos(\omega t - \frac{\pi}{4})$. If the acceleration of the particle is written as $a=A \cos(\omega t + \delta)$,then:

$Assertion :$ In $SHM$,acceleration is always directed towards the mean position.
$Reason :$ In $SHM$,the body has to stop momentarily at the extreme position and move back to the mean position.

The maximum acceleration of a particle in $SHM$ is made two times keeping the maximum speed constant. This is possible when:
