A particle is subjected to two simple harmonic motions as : and where is displacement and is time in seconds. The maximum acceleration of the particle is . The value of is :
- A
- B125
- C
- D175
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: D
-
Given SHMs
Both motions have the same angular frequency:
-
Resultant amplitude
For two SHMs of same frequency and phase difference , resultant amplitude is
where
So,
Hence resultant motion has amplitude
-
Maximum acceleration in SHM
For SHM,
so maximum acceleration is
Therefore,
-
Compare with the required form
Given maximum acceleration is .
Hence,
-
Option check
- A: ❌
- B: ❌
- C: ❌
- D: ✅
Therefore, the correct answer is Option D.
