Is this calculation correct for v = 2πfA ??
Prove that maximum speed of a mass on a spring is given by 2πfA
Ac = Centripetal acceleration
r = radius
v = velocity
f = frequency
π = pi
Ac = (v^2)/r
Ac = 4(π^2)r(f^2)
If Ac = (v^2)/r
and Ac = 4(π^2)r(f^2)
then (v^2)/r = 4(π^2)r(f^2)
so v^2 = 4(π^2)(r^2)(f^2)
and v = 2πrf
Just wondering if there is something wrong with this calculation?
