Question:

A hedge trimmer has a blade that moves back and forth with a frequency of 28 Hz. The blade motion is converted from the rotation provided by the electric motor to an oscillatory motion by means of a Scotch yoke (see Conceptual Question 7). The blade moves 2.4 cm during each stroke. Assuming that the blade moves with SHM, what are the maximum speed and maximum acceleration of the blade?
