I just started learning Simple Harmonic Motion and encountered a word Phase Constant [itex]\phi[/itex] .
Actually it appeared as
f(t)=rsin([itex]\omega t+\phi[/itex])
I am confused whether phase constant is actually the initial position of the particle(which execute SHM) and therefore the point on graph at time=0 or not!
