The piston in the cylinder head of a locomotive has a stroke (twice the amplitude) of 1.0 m. If the piston moves with simple harmonic motion with an angular frequency of 200 rev/min., what its maximum speed?

Explanation

Given `A= 1/2 m , omega = 200 ` rev/min ,Maximum speed, `v_("max") = A omega = 1/2 xx 200 = 100 ` m/min
