Problem

Two particles PP and QQ execute simple harmonic motion along the same straight line with common angular frequency 5 rad s−15\,\text{rad\,s}^{-1} and amplitude 2.0 cm2.0\,\text{cm}. At t=0t=0, PP is at the mean position moving in the positive direction, while QQ is at its extreme positive position. Calculate the earliest time after t=0t=0 when the two particles have equal displacement from the equilibrium position.
