A 3.0 kg mass is connected to a spring with a spring constant of 6.0 N/m.The velocity is given by the expression v(t) = 10.0 cm/s sin($\omega$ t).What is the maximum velocity of the simple harmonic motion?
A) 10 cm/s
B) 14 cm/s
C) 17 cm/s
D) 20 cm/s
E) 25 cm/s

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The maximum velocity in simple harmonic motion is given by the amplitude of the velocity function. Here, the amplitude is 10 cm/s, which is the coefficient of the sine function in v(t).
