Question

The displacement of a particle from its mean position (in metre) is given by y=0.2sin(10πt+1.5π)cos(10πt+1.5π). The motion of particle is SHM, with time period of (in seconds)

Solution

Given equation
y=0.2sin(10πt+1.5π)cos(10πt+1.5π)
Considering (10πt+1.5π)=θ
y=0.2sinθcosθ (Multiplying and dividing by 2)
=0.1×sin2θ (2sinθcosθ=sin2θ)
Putting value of θ back
y=0.1×sin2(10πt+1.5π)
=0.1sin(20πt+3π)
Comparing with standard equation of SHM
y=Asin(ωt+ϕ)
we get
ω=20π
Time period is given as T=2π/ω
T=2π20π
T=0.1 s
Hence motion of particle is simple harmonic with time period =0.1 s
