$A$ particle starts executing simple harmonic motion from one extreme position. If $a, b$ and $c$ are the displacements of the particle from the mean position at the ends of three successive seconds,the frequency of simple harmonic motion is

  • A
    $\frac{1}{\pi} \cos^{-1}\left[\frac{a+c}{2b}\right]$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{2\pi} \cos^{-1}\left[\frac{b+c}{2a}\right]$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2\pi} \cos^{-1}\left[\frac{a+c}{2b}\right]$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{2\pi} \cos^{-1}\left[\frac{a+b}{2c}\right]$

$A$ particle oscillates in a straight line simple harmonically with a period of $8 \ s$ and an amplitude of $4 \sqrt{2} \ m$. The particle starts from the mean position. The ratio of the distance travelled by it in the $1^{\text{st}}$ second of its motion to that in the $2^{\text{nd}}$ second is: $(\sin 45^{\circ} = 1 / \sqrt{2}, \sin \frac{\pi}{2} = 1)$

$A$ particle executes simple harmonic motion between $x = -A$ and $x = +A$. If the time taken by the particle to go from $x = 0$ to $x = A/2$ is $2 \, s$,then the time taken by the particle in going from $x = A/2$ to $x = A$ is $......... \, s$.
