The Displacement D (In Meters) of an Object at Time $$d = - 2 \sin ( 5 t )$$

question 68

Multiple Choice

The displacement d (in meters) of an object at time t (in seconds) is given. Describe the motion of the object. What is the
maximum displacement from its resting position, the time required for one oscillation, and the frequency?
- $$d = - 2 \sin ( 5 t )$$
