An object moves in simple harmonic motion with period 7 seconds and amplitude 3cm. At time =t0 seconds, its displacement d from rest is 0cm, and initially it moves in a negative direction. Give the equation modeling the displacement d as a function of time t.

Answer:

The equation will be [tex]d(t)=-3sin(\frac{2\pi }{7}t+\frac{-2\pi t_0}{7} )[/tex] ( as it moves first in negative direction )

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given that object is moving in SHM

So the equation of motion is either cosine or sine in nature

We can assume formula

[tex]d(t) = Asin(ωt + Ф)[/tex]

We have given

Amplitude A =3

Time period = 7 sec

We know that [tex]\omega =\frac{2\pi }{T}=\frac{2\pi }{7}[/tex]

So [tex]d(t)=3sin(\frac{2\pi }{7}t+\frac{-2\pi t_0}{7} )[/tex]

At t = [tex]t_0[/tex] sec displacement is 0

So [tex]0=3sin(\frac{2\pi }{7}\times [tex]t_0[/tex]+\Phi )[/tex]

[tex]\Phi =\frac{-2\pi t_0}{7}[/tex]

So the equation will be [tex]d(t)=-3sin(\frac{2\pi }{7}t+\frac{-2\pi t_0}{7} )[/tex] ( as it moves first in negative direction )
