The displacement x (in metre) of a particle in simple harmonic motion is related to time t (in second) as 
. The frequency of the motion will be
A
0.5 Hz
B
1.0 Hz
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
The standard equation in SHM is
…(i)
Where 
is amplitude, 
the angular velocity and 
the phase difference.
Also, is 
where 
periodic time.
So, Eq. (i) becomes
…(ii)
Given, equation is
…(ii)
Comparing Eq. (ii) with Eq. (iii), we get
So, frequency
