A particle executes S.H.M. of amplitude A along x-axis. At t = 0, the position of the particle is and it moves along positive x-axis. The displacement of particle in time t is , then the value of will be
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: D
-
The displacement is given by
-
At , the particle is at Substituting in the equation:
-
Therefore,
-
Now use the condition that the particle is moving along the positive -axis at . Velocity is At ,
Since it moves along positive -axis, velocity must be positive:
-
Check the two possible values:
- If , then so this is valid.
- If , then so this is invalid.
-
Hence,
So the correct option is D.
