Solution

The correct option is
D

Given v = $π$ cm/sec , x = 1 cm and $ω = π s^{- 1}$

using v = $ω \sqrt{a^{2} - x^{2}} \Rightarrow π = π \sqrt{a^{2} - 1}$

$\Rightarrow 1 = a^{2} - 1 \Rightarrow a = \sqrt{2} c m$ .

A particle in SHM is described by the displacement equation x(t) = A cos ( ωt+θ) . If the initial (t = 0) position of the particle is 1 cm and its initial velocity is π cm/s, what is its amplitude? The angular frequency of the particle is πs−1

The correct option is D Given v = π cm/sec , x = 1 cm and ω=πs−1 using v = ω√a2−x2⇒π=π√a2−1 ⇒1=a2−1⇒a=√2cm.

Given v = $π$ cm/sec , x = 1 cm and $ω = π s^{- 1}$

using v = $ω \sqrt{a^{2} - x^{2}} \Rightarrow π = π \sqrt{a^{2} - 1}$

$\Rightarrow 1 = a^{2} - 1 \Rightarrow a = \sqrt{2} c m$ .
