Physics Question on simple harmonic motion
A particle executes simple harmonic motion between x=−A and x=+A. If time taken by particle to go from x=0 to 2A is 2 s; then time taken by particle in going from x=2A to A is
A
1.5S
B
3s
C
4s
D
2s
Answer
4s
Explanation
Solution
The correct answer is (C) : 4s
Let time from 0 to A/2 is t1
& from A/2 to A is t2
then ωt1=π/6
ωt2=π/3
t2t1=21
t2=2t1=2×2=4sec
