Two particles are executing simple harmonic motion of the same amplitude $A$ and frequency $\omega$ along the $x$-axis. Their mean positions are separated by a distance $X_0$ $(X_0 > A)$. If the maximum separation between them is $(X_0 + A)$,the phase difference between their motions is:

  • A
    $\frac{\pi}{2}$
  • B
    $\frac{\pi}{4}$
  • C
    $\frac{\pi}{6}$
  • D
    $\frac{\pi}{3}$

Two particles are executing $SHM$ of the same amplitude $A$ and frequency $\omega$ along the $x$-axis. Their mean positions are separated by $X_0$ (where $X_0 > A$). If the maximum separation between them is $X_0 + 2A$,then the phase difference between their motion is:

Two particles execute simple harmonic motion $(SHM)$ along close parallel lines. Both particles have the same frequency and same amplitude. When they pass each other moving in opposite directions, their displacement is half their amplitude. Their phase difference is:

Two particles undergo $SHM$ along parallel lines with the same time period $(T)$ and equal amplitudes $(A)$. At a particular instant,one particle is at its extreme position while the other is at its mean position. They move in the same direction. They will cross each other after a further time:

$A$ particle is subjected to two simple harmonic motions in the same direction having equal amplitudes and equal frequency. If the resultant amplitude is equal to the amplitude of the individual motion, the phase difference $(\delta)$ between the two motions is
