The displacement of a particle along the x-axis is given by, x = asin²$\mathrm{\omega }$t. The motion of the particle corresponds to:

The period of oscillation of a mass M suspended from a spring of negligible mass is T. If along with it, another mass M is also suspended, the period of oscillation will now be:

3. 2T

4. $\sqrt{2}$T

A point performs simple harmonic oscillation of period \(\mathrm{T}\) and the equation of motion is given by; \(x=a \sin (\omega t+\pi / 6)\). After the elapse of what fraction of the time period, the velocity of the point will be equal to half of its maximum velocity?

3. \(\frac{T}{3} \)

4. \( \frac{T}{12}\)
