The piston in the cylinder head of a locomotive has a stroke of 6 m. If the piston executing simple harmonic motion with an angular frequency of 200 rad min-1, its maximum speed is

a
5 ms-1
b
10 ms-1
c
15 ms-1
d
20 ms-1

detailed solution

Correct option is B

Here, ω=200rad min−1Stroke means twice the amplitude.∴ A=3mMaximum speed,vmax=Aω=3×200=600m min−1=60060ms−1=10ms−1
