Paragraph : A particle vibrates in S.H.M. along a straight line. Its velocity is 4 cm/s when its displacement is 3 cm and velocity is 3 cm/s when displacement is 4 cm. The displacement of an object attached to a spring and executing simple harmonic motion is given by x=2xx10^(-2)cos pi t metres. The time at which the maximum speed first occurs is :

Answer»

0.75 s
0.125 s
0.25 s
0.5 s

Solution :`x=2xx10^(-2)cos pi t`.
Comparing it with standard from `x=r cos omegat`. We have
`omega=piimplies(2pi)/(T)=pi`
`IMPLIES""T=2` second
Now in time `t=(T)/(4)` the particle GOES from extreme POSITION to MEAN position where K.E. becomes maximum. `:.""t=(2)/(4)=0.5`
So, correct CHOICE is (d).
