Question

A particle of mass m = 2kg executes SHM in xy plane between points A and B under the action of a force  F=Fxi^+Fyj^. Minimum time taken by the particle to move from  A to B is 1 second. At t = 0, the particle is at x = 2 and y = 2. Then Fx as function of time t is 

 

Moderate
Solution

T = Time period = (1 + 1) S = 2S

  ω=2πT=πsec. Equation of SHM is x=Acosωt.    Fx=mω2x=mω2Acosωt=2×  π2×2cosπt=4π2cosπt
