The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will use the given information about the simple harmonic motion (SHM) of the particle. ### Step 1: Write the equation of SHM The equation of SHM is given as: \[ x = A \sin(\pi t + \phi) \] ### Step 2: Use initial conditions for displacement At \( t = 0 \), the initial displacement \( x \) is given as \( 1 \, \text{cm} \). Substituting \( t = 0 \) into the equation: \[ x = A \sin(\phi) \] Thus, we have: \[ 1 = A \sin(\phi) \tag{1} \] ### Step 3: Use initial conditions for velocity The initial velocity \( v \) is given as \( \pi \, \text{cm/s} \). The velocity in SHM is given by the derivative of displacement with respect to time: \[ v = \frac{dx}{dt} = A \pi \cos(\pi t + \phi) \] At \( t = 0 \): \[ v = A \pi \cos(\phi) \] Substituting the value of \( v \): \[ \pi = A \pi \cos(\phi) \] Dividing both sides by \( \pi \) (assuming \( \pi \neq 0 \)): \[ 1 = A \cos(\phi) \tag{2} \] ### Step 4: Solve the equations simultaneously Now we have two equations: 1. \( A \sin(\phi) = 1 \) 2. \( A \cos(\phi) = 1 \) ### Step 5: Square and add the equations Squaring both equations and adding them gives: \[ (A \sin(\phi))^2 + (A \cos(\phi))^2 = 1^2 + 1^2 \] This simplifies to: \[ A^2 (\sin^2(\phi) + \cos^2(\phi)) = 2 \] Using the Pythagorean identity \( \sin^2(\phi) + \cos^2(\phi) = 1 \): \[ A^2 \cdot 1 = 2 \] Thus: \[ A^2 = 2 \implies A = \sqrt{2} \] ### Step 6: Find the initial phase \( \phi \) From equation (1): \[ A \sin(\phi) = 1 \] Substituting \( A = \sqrt{2} \): \[ \sqrt{2} \sin(\phi) = 1 \implies \sin(\phi) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \implies \sin(\phi) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} \] The angle \( \phi \) that satisfies this is: \[ \phi = \frac{\pi}{4} \text{ or } \phi = \frac{3\pi}{4} \] However, we also need to satisfy equation (2): \[ A \cos(\phi) = 1 \implies \sqrt{2} \cos(\phi) = 1 \implies \cos(\phi) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \implies \cos(\phi) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} \] The angle \( \phi \) that satisfies this is: \[ \phi = \frac{\pi}{4} \] ### Final Result Thus, the amplitude \( A \) is \( \sqrt{2} \, \text{cm} \) and the initial phase \( \phi \) is \( \frac{\pi}{4} \).

To solve the problem step by step, we will use the given information about the simple harmonic motion (SHM) of the particle. ### Step 1: Write the equation of SHM The equation of SHM is given as: \[ x = A \sin(\pi t + \phi) \] ### Step 2: Use initial conditions for displacement At \( t = 0 \), the initial displacement \( x \) is given as \( 1 \, \text{cm} \). Substituting \( t = 0 \) into the equation: ...
