Question
A sphere moves in simple harmonic motion with a frequency of 1.20 Hz and an amplitude of 5.20 cm.
(a) Through what total distance (in cm) does the sphere move during one cycle of its motion?
cm
(b) What is its maximum speed (in cm/s)?
cm/s
Where does this maximum speed occur?
O as the sphere passes through equilibrium
O at maximum excursion from equilibrium
O exactly halfway between equilibrium and maximum excursion
Onone of these
(c) What is the maximum magnitude of acceleration (in m/s2) of the sphere?
m/s2
Where in the motion does the maximum acceleration occur?
as the sphere passes through equilibrium
O at maximum excursion from equilibrium
O exactly halfway between equilibrium and maximum excursion
Onone of these
