Problem

The velocity of a body undergoing simple harmonic motion is given by v(t)=40πcos⁡(2πt) cm s−1v(t)=40\pi \cos(2\pi t)\,\text{cm s}^{-1}. How much displacement does it cover between t=0 st=0\,\text{s} and t=0.25 st=0.25\,\text{s}? (a) 0\;\text{cm} (b) 10\;\text{cm} (c) 20\;\text{cm} (d) 40\;\text{cm}
