MCQ
A $0.10 kg$ block oscillates back and forth along a horizontal surface. Its displacement from the origin is given by: $x=(10 cm ) \cos [(10 rad / s ) t+\pi / 2 rad ]$. What is the maximum acceleration experienced by the block [AMU (Engg.) 2000]
  • $10 m / s ^2$
  • B
    $10 \pi m / s ^2$
  • C
    $\frac{10 \pi}{2} m / s ^2$
  • D
    $\frac{10 \pi}{3} m / s ^2$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$10 m / s ^2$
$ a=10 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~m} \text { and } \omega=10 \mathrm{rad} / \mathrm{sec}$
$ A_{\max }=\omega^2 a=10 \times 10^{-2} \times 10^2=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{sec}^2$
