$A$ particle starts from a point $P$ at a distance of $A/2$ from the mean position $O$ and travels towards the left as shown in the figure. If the time period of $SHM$ executed about $O$ is $T$ and amplitude is $A$,then the equation of motion of the particle is:

  • A
    $x = A \sin \left( \frac{2\pi}{T}t + \frac{\pi}{6} \right)$
  • B
    $x = A \sin \left( \frac{2\pi}{T}t + \frac{5\pi}{6} \right)$
  • C
    $x = A \cos \left( \frac{2\pi}{T}t + \frac{\pi}{6} \right)$
  • D
    $x = A \cos \left( \frac{2\pi}{T}t + \frac{\pi}{4} \right)$

$A$ particle performs simple harmonic motion between $x = -A$ and $x = +A$. How much time does it take to travel from $x = A$ to $x = A/2$?

The minimum phase difference between two simple harmonic motions $x_1 = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \sin \omega t + \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \cos \omega t$ and $x_2 = \sin \omega t + \cos \omega t$ is $[\sin \frac{\pi}{4} = \cos \frac{\pi}{4} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}]$
