2 The point \(O\) is on the fixed line \(l\). The point \(A\) on \(l\) is such that \(O A = 3 \mathrm {~m}\). A particle \(P\) oscillates on \(l\) in simple harmonic motion with centre \(O\) and period \(\pi\) seconds. When \(P\) is at \(A\) its speed is \(12 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\). Find the speed of \(P\) when it is at the point \(B\) on \(l\), where \(O B = 6 \mathrm {~m}\) and \(B\) is on the same side of \(O\) as \(A\).
Find, correct to 2 decimal places, the time, in seconds, taken for \(P\) to travel directly from \(A\) to \(B\).
