The displacement of a particle varies according to the relation x=4(cos⁡πt+sin⁡πt)x=4(\cos \pi t+\sin \pi t). The amplitude of the particle is

Options

  1. A−4-4
  2. B44
  3. C424 \sqrt{2}
  4. D88

Correct answer

C. 424 \sqrt{2}

Step-by-step solution

\left.x=4(\cos \pi t+\sin \pi t)=4\left[\sin\left(\frac{\pi}{2}-\pi t\right)\right]+\sin \pi t\right]=4[2×sin⁡(πt−π2−πt2)cos⁡(πt−π2+πt2)]\left[2 \times \sin \left(\frac{\pi t-\frac{\pi}{2}-\pi t}{2}\right) \cos \left(\frac{\pi \mathrm{t}-\frac{\pi}{2}+\pi \mathrm{t}}{2}\right)\right] =8=8\left[\sin \frac{\pi}{4} \cdot \cos \left(-\frac{\pi}{4}+\pi t\right)\right] =82⋅cos⁡=\frac{8}{\sqrt{2}} \cdot \cos\left[\pi t-\frac{\pi}{4}\right]=4 \sqrt{2} \cos [πt−π4]\left[\pi t-\frac{\pi}{4}\right] Comparing it with standard equation X=Acos⁡(wt−Kx)⇒A=42X=A \cos (w t-K x) \quad \Rightarrow A=4 \sqrt{2}
