QJEEM21Phd948: JEE Main 2021 Physics - Class 11 JEEM21Phd948 Solution: A particle executes simple harmonic motion represented by…

A particle executes simple harmonic motion represented by displacement function as

x(t) = A sin( ω\omega t + ϕ\phi )

If the position and velocity of the particle at t = 0 s are 2 cm and 2 ω\omega cm s −- 1 respectively, then its amplitude is x2x\sqrt 2 cm where the value of x is _________________.

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

x(t) = A sin( ω\omega t + ϕ\phi )

v(t) = A ω\omega cos ( ω\omega t + ϕ\phi )

2 = A sin ϕ\phi ...... (1)

2 ω\omega = A ω\omega cos ϕ\phi ....... (2)

From (1) and (2)

tan ϕ\phi = 1

ϕ\phi = 45 ∘^\circ

Putting value of ϕ\phi in equation (1),

2=A{12}2 = A\left\{ {{1 \over {\sqrt 2 }}} \right\}

A=22A = 2\sqrt 2

∴\therefore x = 2
