If $x= 5sin (\pi t+\frac{\pi}{3})$m represents the motion of a partcile executing simple harmonic motion, the amplitude and time period of motion, respectively, are : |
5 cm, 2s 5 m, 2s 5 cm, 1 s 5 m, 1 s |
5 m, 2s |
The correct answer is option (2) : 5 m, 2s In the equation for simple harmonic motion (SHM), $x= 5 sin (\pi t+\frac{\pi}{3})m$, the general form $x= A sin (\omega t + \phi ) $ can be used to identify the parameters of SHM, where : $A$ is the amplitude. $\omega $ is the angular frequency. $\phi $ is the phase constant. $t$ is the time. Comparing the given equation with the standard form : The amplitude $A$ is $5\,m$, as that is the coefficient of sine in the equation. The angular frequency $\omega $ is $\pi $ rad/s. The angular frequency $\omega $ is related to the time period $T$ of the motion through the formula : $\omega =\frac{2\pi }{T}$ Given that $\omega = \pi , $ we can substitute and solve for $T$ : $\pi =\frac{2\pi}{T}⇒T=\frac{2\pi}{\pi }= 2 $ seconds . Hence, the amplitude of the motion is 5 m and the time period is 2 s. Thus, the correct answer is : Option 2 : 5m , 2s |
