The amplitude of the vibrating particle due to superposition of two $SHMs,$

$y_1 = \sin \left( {\omega t + \frac{\pi }{3}} \right)$ and $y_2 = \sin \omega t$ is :

$a_{x}=1 \cos \frac{\pi}{3}+1=\frac{3}{2}$

$a_{y}=a_{1} \sin \frac{\pi}{3}=1 \times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

$\therefore A=\sqrt{a_{x}^{2}+a y^{2}}=\sqrt{\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^{2}+\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right)^{2}}$

$=\sqrt{\frac{9}{4}+\frac{3}{4}}=\sqrt{3}$

    A body executes sample harmonic motion under the action of a force $F_1$ with a time period $(4 / 5)\  sec$. If the force is changed to $F_ 2$ it executes $SHM$ with time period $(3 / 5)\  sec$. If both the forces $F_1$ and $F_2$ act simultaneously in the same direction on the body, it's time period (in $second$) is
