Answer

(a) simple harmonic, (b) $2\ ft$ (c) $2 \sec$ (d) $\frac{1}{2}\ Hz$

Work Step by Step

Given $d=2sin(\pi t)$ (a) the motion is simple harmonic, (b) the maximum displacement from its rest position is $2\ ft$ (c) the period is $p=\frac{2\pi}{\pi}=2 \sec$ (d) the frequency is $f=\frac{1}{p}=\frac{1}{2}\ Hz$
