Question

Two particles perform SHM along parallel lines with the same period $T$ and amplitude. At one instant one is at the extreme positive position and the other is at the mean position moving toward $+ x$ . After what further time do they cross?

Options:

Answer:

B

Solution:

Take $x_{1} = A cos θ$ and $x_{2} = A sin θ$ . They are equal at $θ = π /4$ , i.e. $t = T /8$ .
