Two particles P and Q describe S.H.M. of same amplitude a, same frequency f along the same straight line. The maximum distance between the two particles is a 2 . The initial phase difference between the particle is -
Options
- Azero
- B/ 2
- C/ 6
Correct answer
B. / 2
Step-by-step solution
x ₁= a ( t + ₁ ), x ₂= a ( t + ₂ ) | x ₁- x ₂ |=2 a ( t + ₁+ ₂ 2 ) ( ₁- ₂ 2 ) Tomaximize | x ₁- x ₂ |: ( t + ₁+ ₂ 2 )=1 a 2 =2 a 1 ( ₁- ₂ 2 ) 1 2 = ( ₁- ₂ 2 ) 4 = ₁- ₂ 2 ₁- ₂= 2
