A particle moves such that its position from origin is given by (...
A particle moves such that its position from origin is given by (2+3 \sin ^2 ). Choose CORRECT statement(s) about its motion :-
(A) Particle performs S.H.M. of amplitude (m) and frequency ()
(B) Particle performs oscillations but no S.H.M.
(C) Particle performs S.H.M. about mean position at (x=m)
(D) Particle performs oscillations of amplitude 3 m
Options
- AB,D
- BA,C
- CA,C,D
- DNone
Correct answer
D. None
Step-by-step solution
1. Analyzing the Statements:
- (A): Particle performs S.H.M. of amplitude and frequency ().
- False: The amplitude is actually (m) (not ), and frequency is derived from (\cos (2 t)) which would be (), but the amplitude is incorrect.
(B): Particle performs oscillations but no S.H.M.
- False: The particle does perform oscillatory motion about a mean position with a periodic nature (but not simple harmonic due to the (\sin ^2) term).
(C): Particle performs S.H.M. about mean position at .
- False: The mean position is at (x=m(\operatorname{not} 7, m)).
(D): Particle performs oscillations of amplitude 3, .
- False: The amplitude is (m) (not ).
