The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the new amplitude of a particle performing simple harmonic motion (SHM) given that its speed is double when it is at a distance of \( \frac{A}{3} \) from the equilibrium position. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Understanding the SHM Velocity Formula**: The velocity \( V \) of a particle in SHM at a distance \( y \) from the equilibrium position is given by: \[ V = \omega \sqrt{A^2 - y^2} \] where \( A \) is the amplitude and \( \omega \) is the angular frequency. 2. **Calculate Initial Velocity at \( y = \frac{A}{3} \)**: Substitute \( y = \frac{A}{3} \) into the velocity formula: \[ V = \omega \sqrt{A^2 - \left(\frac{A}{3}\right)^2} \] Simplifying this: \[ V = \omega \sqrt{A^2 - \frac{A^2}{9}} = \omega \sqrt{\frac{9A^2 - A^2}{9}} = \omega \sqrt{\frac{8A^2}{9}} = \frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3} A \omega \] 3. **Determine the New Velocity**: According to the problem, the new speed \( V' \) is double the initial speed: \[ V' = 2V = 2 \left(\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3} A \omega\right) = \frac{4\sqrt{2}}{3} A \omega \] 4. **Set Up the Equation for New Amplitude**: The new velocity \( V' \) can also be expressed using the new amplitude \( A' \): \[ V' = \omega \sqrt{A'^2 - \left(\frac{A}{3}\right)^2} \] Squaring both sides gives: \[ V'^2 = \omega^2 \left(A'^2 - \left(\frac{A}{3}\right)^2\right) \] 5. **Substituting Values**: Substitute \( V' = \frac{4\sqrt{2}}{3} A \omega \): \[ \left(\frac{4\sqrt{2}}{3} A \omega\right)^2 = \omega^2 \left(A'^2 - \left(\frac{A}{3}\right)^2\right) \] This simplifies to: \[ \frac{32}{9} A^2 \omega^2 = \omega^2 \left(A'^2 - \frac{A^2}{9}\right) \] 6. **Canceling \( \omega^2 \)**: Dividing both sides by \( \omega^2 \): \[ \frac{32}{9} A^2 = A'^2 - \frac{A^2}{9} \] 7. **Rearranging the Equation**: Rearranging gives: \[ A'^2 = \frac{32}{9} A^2 + \frac{A^2}{9} = \frac{32A^2 + A^2}{9} = \frac{33A^2}{9} \] 8. **Finding the New Amplitude**: Taking the square root: \[ A' = \sqrt{\frac{33}{9}} A = \frac{\sqrt{33}}{3} A \] ### Final Answer: The new amplitude of the motion is: \[ A' = \frac{\sqrt{33}}{3} A \]
