Question

Two SHM particles have same frequency but phase difference π. When particle A is at x = +A, particle B is at:
  1. A
    x = +A
  2. B
    x = −A
    Correct
  3. C
    x = 0
  4. D
    x = A/2

Correct answer

x = −A

Explanation

Phase difference π means when A is at +A, B is at −A. They are always at opposite extremes simultaneously.
