$A$ particle is executing simple harmonic motion with a period of $T$ seconds and amplitude $a$ meters. The shortest time it takes to reach a point $\frac{a}{\sqrt{2}} \, m$ from its mean position in seconds is

The displacement versus time curve for a particle executing $SHM$ is shown in the figure. Identify the points marked at which $(i)$ the velocity of the oscillator is zero,$(ii)$ the speed of the oscillator is maximum.

The phase (at a time $t$) of a particle in simple harmonic motion tells:

Time period of a particle executing $SHM$ is $8 \, s$. At $t = 0$ it is at the mean position. The ratio of the distance covered by the particle in the $1^{st}$ second to the $2^{nd}$ second is:
