Two particles are in $SHM$ on the same straight line with amplitudes $A$ and $2A$ and with the same angular frequency $\omega$. It is observed that when the first particle is at a distance $A/\sqrt{2}$ from the origin and moving toward the mean position,the other particle is at the extreme position on the other side of the mean position. Find the phase difference between the two particles. (in $^o$)

$A$ particle executes simple harmonic motion. Its amplitude is $8 \,cm$ and time period is $6 \,s$. The time it will take to travel from its position of maximum displacement to the point corresponding to half of its amplitude,is ............. $s$

Two bodies performing $SHM$ have the same amplitude and frequency. Their positions and directions of motion at a certain instant are as shown in the figure. The phase difference between them is

$A$ particle starts from a point $P$ at a distance of $A/2$ from the mean position $O$ and travels towards the left as shown in the figure. If the time period of $SHM$ executed about $O$ is $T$ and amplitude is $A$,then the equation of motion of the particle is:
