    The displacement\[x\](in centimeters) of an oscillating particle varies with time t (in seconds) as\[x=2\cos (0.5\pi t+\pi /3).\]The magnitude of the maximum acceleration of the particle in \[c{{m}^{-2}}\]is

    A) \[\frac{\pi }{2}\]                                 

    B) \[\frac{\pi }{4}\]                     

    C)      \[\frac{{{\pi }^{2}}}{2}\]               

    D)      \[\frac{{{\pi }^{2}}}{4}\]   

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Given:\[x=2\cos \left( 0.5\pi t+\frac{\pi }{3} \right)\] \[\therefore \]velocity \[V=\frac{dx}{dt}=2\times 0.5\pi \sin \left( 0.5\pi t+\frac{\pi }{3} \right)\] \[\therefore \]Acceleration\[a=\frac{dV}{dt}=-2\times 0.5\pi \times 0.5\pi \cos \left( 0.5\pi t+\frac{\pi }{3} \right)\] \[\therefore \]Max. acceleration \[{{a}_{mix}}=-2\times 0.5\pi \times 0.5\pi =-\frac{{{\pi }^{2}}}{2}cm/{{s}^{2}}\] \[\therefore \]Magnitude is \[\left| {{a}_{\max }} \right|=\left| -\frac{{{\pi }^{2}}}{2} \right|=\frac{{{\pi }^{2}}}{2}cm/{{s}^{2}}\] Hence, the correction option is (c).
