1.2.9 Example

A body undergoes a simple harmonic motion with amplitude 3.0 m and period 4.00 s. Find the

a)    angular frequency,
b)    maximum speed,
c)    maximum acceleration,
d)    acceleration of the body when it is 1.0 m from the equilibrium point, and
e)    speed of the body when it is 1.0 m from the equilibrium point.

[ 1.57 rad/s, 4.7 m/s , 7.4 m/s^2 , -2.5 m/s^2, 4.4 m/s ]

Hint:

1.2.9.1 Solution:

a) angular frequency , ω = $\genfrac{}{}{0.1ex}{}{2\pi }{T}=\genfrac{}{}{0.1ex}{}{2\pi }{4}=1.57\genfrac{}{}{0.1ex}{}{rad}{s}$

b) maximum speed, v₀ = x₀ω = (3.00)(1.57) = 0.047 m/s

c) maximum acceleration, |a₀| = x₀ω² = (3.00)(1.57)² = 7.4 m/s²

d) when x = 1.00, acceleration, a = -ω²x = (1.57)²(1.00) = -2.5 m/s²

e) when x = 1.00, speed, v = x₀ω = (3.00)(1.57) = 4.4 m/s
