Two particles are executing SHM which are described by the equations x1 = asin(ωt + π/6) and x2 = asin(ωt + π/4). Find the minimum time interval between the particles to cross their mean position.

Correct Option - 1
Detailed Solution:at t = t? , x? = 0 ⇒ 0 = asin (ωt? + π/6)
⇒ ωt? + π/6 = π
at t = t? , x? = 0 ⇒ 0 = asin (ωt? + π/4)
⇒ ωt? + π/4 = π
From (i) and (ii)
ω (t? - t? ) = π/4 - π/6 ⇒ t? - t? = π/ (12ω)
