Values of the acceleration `A` of a particle moving in simple harmonic motion as a function of its displacement `x` are given in the table below.
`|{:(A(mm s^(-2)),16,8,0,-8,-16),(x(mm),-4,-2,0,2,4):}|`
The pariod of the motion is

A

`1/(pi)s`

B

`(2)/(pi)s`

C

`(pi)/(2)s`

D

`pis`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

In SHM `a = -omega^(2)x`. So `16 = -omega^(2) (-4) rArr omega = 2 rArr "Time period" T = (2pi)/(omega) = (2pi)/(2) = pis`
