A particle moves such that its position from origin is given by (...

A particle moves such that its position from origin is given by (x=\mathrm{x}=2+3 \sin ^2 ωt\omega \mathrm{t}). Choose CORRECT statement(s) about its motion :- (A) Particle performs S.H.M. of amplitude (32\frac{3}{2}m) and frequency (ωπ\frac{\omega}{\pi}) (B) Particle performs oscillations but no S.H.M. (C) Particle performs S.H.M. about mean position at (x=72\frac{7}{2}m) (D) Particle performs oscillations of amplitude 3 m

Options

  1. AB,D
  2. BA,C
  3. CA,C,D
  4. DNone

Correct answer

D. None

Step-by-step solution

1. Analyzing the Statements: - (A): Particle performs S.H.M. of amplitude 3,m3, m and frequency (ωπ\frac{\omega}{\pi}). - False: The amplitude is actually (32,\frac{3}{2},m) (not 3,m3, m), and frequency is derived from (\cos (2 ω\omegat)) which would be (2ω2π=ωπ\frac{2 \omega}{2 \pi}=\frac{\omega}{\pi}), 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 x=7,mx=7, m. - False: The mean position is at (x=72,\frac{7}{2},m(\operatorname{not} 7, m)). (D): Particle performs oscillations of amplitude 3, mm. - False: The amplitude is (32,\frac{3}{2},m) (not 3,m3, m).
