Question

A block on a level,frictionless surface and connected to a spring undergoes simple harmonic motion with amplitude A.At x = 0,which relationship is correct? A)|v| < |v_max| B)|v| = |v_max| C)|v| > |v_max| D)Not enough information to determine a relationship.

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

At x = 0, the block is at the equilibrium position where its velocity is maximum. Therefore, |v| equals |v_max|.
