mm

(b) Find the maximum blade speed.
m/s

(c) Find the magnitude of the maximum blade acceleration.
m/s2

I will gladly check your answers after you have domn some thinking about the proplem. They practically tell you what the amplitude is.

Maximum speeds in simple harmonic motion are w*Amplitude, and Maximum acclerations are w^2*Amplitude.

w is the angular frequency in radians per second. You must compute that from the frequency in Hz. You should know how to do that.
