The maximum velocity and the maximum acceleration of a body moving in a
simple harmonic oscillator are 2 m/s and 4 m/s2. Then angular velocity will be

3 rad/sec
0.5 rad/sec
1 rad/sec
2 rad/sec
vmax=aω and Amax=aω2⇒ω=Amaxvmax=42=2rad/sec
A body executing simple harmonic motion has a maximum acceleration equal to 24 metres/sec2 and maximum velocity equal to 16 meters/sec. The amplitude of the simple harmonic motion is
