Velocity & Acceleration in SHM

A particle of mass 250 g executes a simple harmonic motion under a periodic force F=(−25x) NF = (-25x)\text{ N}. The particle attains a maximum speed of 4 m/s during its oscillation. The amplitude of the motion is ___________ cm.

Numerical answer type. Work it out, then open the answer.

Show answer and solution

Answer: 40

  1. F=−25x⇒k=25F = -25x \Rightarrow k = 25 N/m; m=0.25m = 0.25 kg.
  2. ω=km=100=10\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}} = \sqrt{100} = 10 rad/s.
  3. A=vmaxω=410=0.4A = \frac{v_{max}}{\omega} = \frac{4}{10} = 0.4 m.
  4. Answer: 40 cm.
