The displacement of a particle is represented by the equation 
. The motion of the particle is:
A
Simple harmonic with period 
B
Simple harmonic with period 
C
Periodic but not simple harmonic
D
Non-periodic
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Given, 
Velocity of the particle
As acceleration, 
As acceleration, 
Hence, due to negative sign motion is SHM.
Clearly, from the equation
Standard equation 
[and given equation 
]
So, motion is S.H.M with period 
.
