Simple hormonic motion

Question

The period of a particle in SHM is 8 s. At t = 0, it is at the mean position. The ratio of the distances travelled by it in the 1st and the 2nd second is

Easy

A

$\frac{1}{2}$
B

$\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$
C

$\sqrt{2}$
D

$\sqrt{2} + 1$

Solution

$y_{1} = Asin (\frac{2 π}{T} \times t_{1}); y_{2} = Asin (\frac{2 π}{T} \times (t_{1} + t_{2}))$
Distance travelled in second ; $y_{2}^{1} = y_{2} - y_{1}$
