Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{4 \pi}{3} \mathrm{~s}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, maximum speed of SHM is \(40 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}\). \(v_{\max }=a \omega=40 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}\)...(i) Maximum acceleration of SHM is \(60 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}\). As, \[ a_{\max }=a \omega^2=60 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}...(ii) \] Dividing Eq. (ii) by Eq. (i), we get…
