Two particles oscillate in simple harmonic motion along a conrmon straight-line segment of length A. Each particle
Question:
Two particles oscillate in simple harmonic motion along a conrmon straight-line segment of length A. Each particle has a period of 1.5 s, but they differ in phase by π/6 rad.
(a) How far apart are they (in terms of A) 0.50 s after the lagging particle leaves one end of the path?
(b) Are they then moving in the same direction, toward each other, or away from each other?
