Two particles are executing $SHM$ in a straight line. The amplitude $A$ and time period $T$ of both particles are equal. At time $t = 0$,one particle is at displacement $x_1 = +A$ and the other is at $x_2 = -A/2$,and they are approaching each other. The time after which they will cross each other is:
