A mass on a spring vibrates horizontally on a smooth level surface (see the figure). Its equation of motion is x(t) = 8 sin t, where is in seconds and in centimeters.
(a) Find the velocity and acceleration at time t.
(b) Find the position, velocity, and acceleration of the mass at time t = 2Ï€/3. In what direction is it moving at that time?
