The periodic time of a body executing simple harmonic motion is 3 sec. After how much time from time `t=0` , its displacement will be half of its amplitude

A

`1/8s`

B

`1/6s`

C

`1/4s`

D

`1/3s`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`y = a sin wt` as `y = a/2` we get `t = 1/4s` (Given T = 3s)
