Question

A sphere moves in simple harmonic motion with a frequency of 4.40 Hz and an amplitude of 3.50 cm. (a) Through what total distance (in cm) does the sphere move during one cycle of its motion

Answer 1

It will move a distance of 4 * 3.5 = 4 cm in one cycle.

zero to max A, back to zero, zero to min A, back to zero (4 * A)
