A$500\, m/s^2$
B$500\,\sqrt 2 \,m/{s^2}$
C$750\, m/s^2$
D$750\,\sqrt 2 \,m/{s^2}$

B$500\,\sqrt 2 \,m/{s^2}$
b Maximum velocity in $\mathrm{SHM}, \mathrm{v}_{\max }=\mathrm{a} \omega$
Maximum acceleration in $\mathrm{SHM}, \mathrm{A}_{\max }=\mathrm{a} \omega^{2}$
where $a$ and $\omega$ are maximum amplitude and angular frequency.
Given that, $\frac{A_{\max }}{v_{\max }}=10$
i.e., $\omega=10 \mathrm{s}^{-1}$
Displacement is given by
$x=a \sin (\omega t+\pi t 4)$
at $t=0, x=5$
$5=a \sin \pi / 4$
$5=a \sin 45^{\circ} \Rightarrow a=5 \sqrt{2}$
Maximum acceleration $\mathrm{A}_{\mathrm{max}}=\mathrm{a} \omega^{2}$
$=500\sqrt{2}\,m/s^2$

$Assertion :$ In simple harmonic motion, the velocity is maximum when the acceleration is minimum.
$Reason :$ Displacement and velocity of $S.H.M.$ differ in phase by $\frac{\pi }{2}$
A mass $m$ is attached to two springs of same force constant $K$, as shown in following four arrangements. If $T_1, T_2, T_3$ and $T_4$ respectively be the time periods of oscillation in the following arrangements, in which case time period is maximum?
