Two particles are performing simple harmonic motion in a straight line about the same equilibrium point. The amplitude and time period for both particles are same and equal to A and T, respectively. At time t=0 one particle has displacement A while the other one has displacement 2 A − and they are moving towards each other. If they cross each other at time t, then t is :

After T/4 time both the particle will be at same position . they meet at the mean position.
this is because both the particle have same amplitude and time period and at t=0 they are at opposite extremes so it takes T/4 time to reach the mean position
