Detailed Solution

Given,

Time period T = 1.57sec

we know that angular frequency ω=2πT

ω=2×3.141.57

ω=4

maximum displacement = n = 0.05m

(i) Velocity will be maximum at the mean position.

Hence velocity at the mean position

vmax=Aω

vmax=0.05×4

vmax=0.2m/s

velocity at mean position will be 0.2m/s.

(ii) Acceleration at extreme position a

a=ω2A

a=42A

a=16×0.05

a=0.8m/s2

Hence the correct answer is 0.2 ms-1, 0.8ms-2.
