A particle performs SHM of amplitude A along a straight line. When it is at distance `sqrt(3)/2` A from mean position, its kinetic energy gets increased by an amount `1/2momega^(2)A^(2)` due to an impulsive force. Then its new amplitude becomes.

Options

A. `(sqrt5)/(2)A`
B. `(sqrt3)/(2)A`
C. `sqrt2A`
D. `sqrt5A`

Answer

C

Explanation

Due to impulse the total energy of the particle becomes
`(1)/(2)momega^2A^2+(1)/(2)momega^2A^2=momega^2A^2`
Let `A'`. Be the new amplitude
`(1)/(2)momega^2(A')^2=momega^2A^2impliesA'=sqrt2A`
