Impulse
The time dependence of the displacement and the velocity of the mass (in terms of nonzero constants A and B ) are given by
Ans:
(a) x(t ) = A sin t , v(t ) = B cos t
(b) x(t ) = A sin t , v(t ) = B sin t
(c) x(t ) = A cos t , v (t ) = B sin t
(d) x(t ) = A cos t , v(t ) = B cos t
(a)
Solution: At time t = = 0 , the mass ‘ m ’ is at rest. Thus, displacement will be zero at time t = = 0 .
∴ Velocity is v =
x = A sin (ω t )
dx
= Aω cos ωt = B cos ω t dt Thus, x = A sin ω t and V ( t ) = B cos ω t
