Question: A mass-spring system oscillates with an amplitude of 0.1 m. What is the maximum speed of the mass if the angular frequency is 20 rad/s?
Options:
Correct Answer: 2 m/s
Solution:
The maximum speed v_max is given by v_max = Aω, where A is the amplitude and ω is the angular frequency. Thus, v_max = 0.1 * 20 = 2 m/s.
