Generation and propagation of sound and electromagnetic waves can be understood by which motion?

$A$ particle is executing simple harmonic motion with an amplitude $A$. The distance travelled by the particle in half time period is

$A$ particle executes simple harmonic motion according to the equation $x(t) = A \sin^2(\alpha t)$. If the time period of the $SHM$ is $0.2 \ s$, then the value of $\alpha$ (in units of $rad/s$) is (in $pi$)

Define periodic motion and oscillatory motion.

$A$ simple harmonic motion is represented by $\alpha \frac{d^2 x}{d t^2}+\beta x=0$. Its period is

When a particle of mass $m$ moves on the $x$-axis in a potential of the form $V(x)=kx^2$,it performs simple harmonic motion. The corresponding time period is proportional to $\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$,as can be seen easily using dimensional analysis. However,the motion of a particle can be periodic even when its potential energy increases on both sides of $x=0$ in a way different from $kx^2$ and its total energy is such that the particle does not escape to infinity. Consider a particle of mass $m$ moving on the $x$-axis. Its potential energy is $V(x)=\alpha x^4$ $(\alpha>0)$ for $|x|$ near the origin and becomes a constant equal to $V_0$ for $|x| \geq X_0$ (see figure).

$(A)$ $E < 0$
$(B)$ $E > 0$
$(C)$ $V_0 > E > 0$
$(D)$ $E > V_0$
$2.$ For periodic motion of small amplitude $A$,the time period $T$ of this particle is proportional to
$(A)$ $A \sqrt{\frac{m}{\alpha}}$
$(B)$ $\frac{1}{A} \sqrt{\frac{m}{\alpha}}$
$(C)$ $A \sqrt{\frac{\alpha}{m}}$
$(D)$ $A \sqrt{\frac{\alpha}{m}}$

$(A)$ proportional to $V_0$
$(B)$ proportional to $\frac{V_0}{mX_0}$
$(C)$ proportional to $\sqrt{\frac{V_0}{mX_0}}$
