MCQ
The displacement of an object attached to a spring and executing simple harmonic motion is given by $ x= 2 \times 10^{-9}$ $ cos$ $\;\pi t\left( m \right)$ .The time at which the maximum speed first occurs is
  • A
    $0.25$
  • $0.5$
  • C
    $0.75$
  • D
    $0.125$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$0.5$
b
Here, $x=2 \times 10^{-2} \cos \pi t$

$\therefore v=\frac{d x}{d t}=2 \times 10^{-2} \pi \sin \pi t$

For the first time, the speed to be maximum,

$\sin \pi t=1$ or, $\sin \pi t=\sin \frac{\pi}{2}$

$\Rightarrow \pi t=\frac{\pi}{2} \quad$ or, $t=\frac{1}{2}=0.5 \mathrm{sec}$
