The motion of a particle is expressed by the equation `a=-bx`, where x is the displacement from the mean position, a is the acceleration and b is a constant. The periodic time is……………

A

`(2pi)/(b)`

B

`(2pi)/(sqrt(b))`

C

`2pisqrt(b)`

D

`2sqrt((pi)/(b))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Here `omega^(2)=b`. Therefore `T=(2pi)/(omega)=(2pi)/(sqrt(b))`
