    A simple harmonic wave having an amplitude a and time period T is represented by the equation\[y=5\sin \pi (t+4)m\]. Then the value of amplitude in (m) and time period (T) in second are

    A) \[a=10,\,T=2\]    

    B)        a=5,T=l

    C) a=10,T=l         

    D) a=5,T=2

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] \[y=5\sin (\pi t+4\pi ),\] comparing it with standard equation \[y=a\,\sin (\omega t+\phi )=a\,sin\left( \frac{2\pi t}{T}+\phi  \right)\] \[a=5m\] and \[\frac{2\pi t}{T}=\pi t\Rightarrow T=2\sec \].
