A particle performs $S.H.M.$ of amplitude $A$ with angular frequency $\omega$  along a straight line. Whenit is at a distance  $\frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{2}$ $A$  from mean position, its kinetic energy gets increased by an amount $\frac{1}{2}m{\omega ^2}{A^2}$  due to an impulsive force. Then its new amplitude becomes

Due to impulse force, the total energy of the particle becomes

$\frac{1}{2} m \omega^{2} A^{2}+\frac{1}{2} m \omega^{2} A^{2}=m \omega^{2} A^{2}$

Let $A^{\prime}$ be the new amplitude. (apply energy conservation law)

$\frac{1}{2} m_{\omega}^{2}\left(A^{\prime}\right)=m_{\omega}^{2} A^{2}$

${A}^{\prime}=\sqrt{2} A$
