Step 1:

a)

The displacement of the object is

The above equation is in the form of simple harmonic motion

Where is a displacement of time, is the amplitude and period is .

Compare above two equations ,

.

The motion of the object is simple harmonic motion.

b)

The maximum displacement from its resting position is the amplitude.

meters.

The amplitude is meters.

Step 2:

(c)

The time required for one oscillation is the period.

The period is .

d)

Frequency is the reciprocal of the period.

.

The frequency is oscillations per second.

Solution:

a)

The motion of the object is simple harmonic motion.

b)

The amplitude is meters.

c)

The period is .

d)

The frequency is oscillations per second.
