A particle executing SHM crossed points ...

A particle executing SHM crossed points A and B with the same velocity. Having taken 3 s in passing from A to B, it returns to B after another 3s. The time period is :

A

15s

B

6s

C

12s

D

9s

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Time period of Oscillation = `2xx` (time taken to go from A to B + the next time taken to return at B)
`=2xx(3+3)`
`=2xx6`
Time period = 12s
