3 The point \(O\) is on the fixed line \(l\). Points \(A\) and \(B\) on \(l\) are such that \(O A = 6 \mathrm {~m}\) and \(O B = 8 \mathrm {~m}\), with \(O\) between \(A\) and \(B\). A particle \(P\) oscillates on \(l\) in simple harmonic motion with centre \(O\). When \(P\) is at \(A\) its speed is \(4 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\), and when \(P\) is at \(B\) its speed is \(3 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\). Show that the amplitude of the motion is 10 m and find the period of the motion. Find the time taken by \(P\) to travel directly from \(A\) to \(B\), through \(O\).
