The amplitude of a particle executing simple harmonic motion in 5cm while its angular frequency is 10 rad s-1. calculate the magnitude of the maximum acceleration of the particle
- A. 0.25ms-2
- B. 0.50ms-2
- C. 2.00ms-2
- D. 5.00ms-2
Correct Answer: D. 5.00ms-2
Explanation
amax = \(\omega^2 r = 10^2 \times \frac{5}{100} = 5ms^{-2}\)
