The maximum velocity and acceleration of a particle executing SHM about its equilibrium position are 4.0m/s and 64.0m/ss respectively. If the acceleration of the particle is -64.0m/ss at t=0. Write an expression for the velocity of the particle as a function of time

I cant believe you Leah, do your school work yourself!!

Just so you know it's Jazmine! I'm telling mom!
if displacement = amplitude*cos(wt)=Acos(wt)
then velocity= -Aw*sin(wt)
and acceleration= - Aw^2coswt
Aw^2=64
Aw=4
4w=64 w=16
velocity=-Awsinwt=-4sinwt=-4sin(16t)

check my thinking.
