Question
x and y displacements of a particle are given as x(t) = a sin ωt and y(t) = a sin 2ωt. Its trajectory will look like.
Options
A.

B.

C.

D.

Solution
At t = 0, x(t) = 0 ; y(t) = 0
x(t) is a
sinusoidal function hence option(1)
At t =
x (t) = a
y (t) = 0
x(t) is a
sinusoidal function hence option(1)
At t =
x (t) = a
y (t) = 0
