उत्तर
It is given that a particle is subjected to two S.H.M.s of same time period in the same direction.
Amplitude of first motion, A1 = 3 cm
Amplitude of second motion, A2 = 4 cm
Let ϕ be the phase difference.
The resultant amplitude \[\left( R \right)\] is given by,
\[R = \sqrt{A_1^2 + A_2^2 + 2 A_1 A_2 cos \phi}\]
(a) When ϕ = 0°
\[R = \sqrt{\left( 3^2 + 4^2 + \left( 2 \right)\left( 3 \right)\left( 4 \right) \cos 0^\circ\right)}\]
\[ = 7 \text { cm }\]
(b) When ϕ = 60°
\[R = \sqrt{3^2 + 4^2 + \left( 2 \right)\left( 3 \right)\left( 4 \right) \cos 60^\circ}\]
\[ = \sqrt{37} = 6 . 1 \text { cm }\]
(c) When ϕ = 90°
\[R = \sqrt{\left( 3^2 + 4^2 + \left( 2 \right)\left( 3 \right)\left( 4 \right)\cos 90^\circ\right)}\]
\[ = \sqrt{25} = 5 \text { cm }\]

In measuring time period of a pendulum, it is advised to measure the time between consecutive passage through the mean position in the same direction. This is said to result in better accuracy than measuring time between consecutive passage through an extreme position. Explain.
It is proposed to move a particle in simple harmonic motion on a rough horizontal surface by applying an external force along the line of motion.
