consider a shm of time period T. calculate the time takeen for the displacement to change value from half the amplitude to the amplitude
Answers
Answer:
Given:
An SHM of time period T has been provided.
To find:
Time taken to travel from Half-amplitude point to Amplitude.
Concept:
Considering amplitude as "A"
Let the equation of the SHM be as follows:
y = A sin(ωt)
Now , we have to calculate time taken to travel from "A/2" to "A".
This can be found by the following observation :
Time required = {Total time to travel from 0 to A } - { Time taken to travel from 0 to A/2}
Calculation:
Time taken to travel from 0 to A
= T/4 ...........(1)
( As it is ¼ of the total journey)
Time taken to travel from 0 to A/2 can be calculated as
A/2 = A sin(ωt)
=> ½ = sin(ωt)
=> sin(π/6) = sin{(2π/T) × t}
=> π/6 = 2π/T × t
=> t = T/12 .................(2)
So the required time to travel from
A/2 to A
= (1) - (2)
= T/4 - T/12
= T/6
So the answer is T/6.
→ The time taken for the displacement to change value from half the amplitude to the amplitude
→ Time period = Value of time at amplitude a - value of time at amplitude a/2.
→ As we know the value of time period at amplitude 0 to a = t/4 ---( i )
→ At amplitude 0 to a/2
→ Subtract a - a/2
→ t/4 - t/12
→ 2t/12
