The function `sin^(2)(omega t)` represents:

A

A periodic, but not simple harmonic motion with a period `2pi//omega`

B

A periodic, but not simple harmonic motion with a period `pi//omega`

C

A simple harmonic motion with a period `2pi//omega`

D

A simple harmonic motion with a period `pi//omega`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`sin^(2)(omegat)=(1-cos(2omegat))/(2)`
`T=(2pi)/(2omega)=(pi)/(omega)` Periodic but not SHM.
