Disorders that can result in this type of pathology include diabetes and nerve damage from exposure to heavy metals. The tuning fork in the figure(Figure 1) has a frequency of 140 Hz If the tips of the fork move with an amplitude of 1.10 mm, find their maximum speed Umax m/s Submit My Answers Give Up Part B Find their maximum acceleration.

Explanation / Answer

w = 2 pi f = 2 x pi x 140 = 879.65 rad/s

A = 1.10 x 10^-3 m


(A) v_max = A w = 0.968 m/s


(B) a_max = A w^2 = 851 m/s^2

a_max = (851/9.81) g

= 86.8 g
