A particle starts from wave motion and has a time period T. If it completes 5/8 oscillations time taken is?

Question

Arun · Answer

Total distance covered by the particle=4A. we divide this whole path in 8 intervals of A/2. so, 5/8 oscillations means, it has already completed1/2 oscillation(i.e. total dist. = 2A) and is half way to the other side i.e. A/2. so,A/2=Asinwt,w=2pi/T , substitute to get t=T/12. now, total time taken = time to complete previous one half(2A) + time taken to completeA/2=t/2+t/12=7T/12. Hence option B is correct

Vikas TU · Answer

Starting from mean position, time taken by it to complete 5/8 oscillations, is. Total distance covered by the particle=4A. we divide this whole path in 8 intervals of A/2. so, 5/8 oscillations means, it has already completed1/2 oscillation
