The phase difference between two particles executing SHM of the same amplitudes and frequency along same straight line while passing one another when going in opposite directions with equal displacement from their respective stating point is $$2$$π$$/3$$. If the phase of one particle is π$$/6$$, find the displacement at this instant, if amplitude is A

Question

The phase difference between two particles executing SHM of the same amplitudes and frequency along same straight line while passing one another when going in opposite directions with equal displacement from their respective stating point is $$2$$π$$/3$$. If the phase of one particle is π$$/6$$, find the displacement at this instant, if amplitude is A

Infinity Learn · Accepted Answer

Phase difference δ$$=2$$$$π$$$$3=$$δ$$2$$−δ$$1=$$δ$$2$$−π$$6$$⇒ δ$$2=5$$$$π$$$$6$$; and $$sin$$⁡δ$$1=$$$$sin$$⁡δ$$2=12Displacement$$ is measured from starting point (t=0) So,  $$x=Asin$$⁡ω$$t+$$δ$$1=Asin$$⁡$$0+$$π$$6=A2$$
