The piston in the cylinder of a car engine moves in the cylinder with simple harmonic motion. The piston moves between a position of maximum height in the cylinder to a position of minimum height, as illustrated in Fig. 3.1. 9.8 cm cylinder maximum height minimum height piston cylinder piston Fig. 3.1 The distance moved by the piston between the positions shown in Fig. 3.1 is 9.8 cm. The mass of the piston is 640 g. At one particular speed of the engine, the piston completes 2700 oscillations in 1.0 minute.
