Two particles are executing SHM in a straight line. Amplitude A and the time period T of both the particles are equal. At time t=0, one particle is at displacement `x_(1)=+A` and the other `x_(2)=(-A/2)` and they are approaching towards each other. After what time they across each other? `T/4`

A

`(T)/(3)`

B

`(T)/(4)`

C

`(5T)/(6)`

D

`(T)/(6)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D


Total time `= 2t = (T)/(4) + (T)/(12)`
