Answer

$a_{max}=5.7\times10^2\frac{m}{s^2}$

Work Step by Step

We know that $a_{max}=A\omega^2$ and $\omega=2\pi$$f$=$2\times3.14\times120=754\frac{rad}{s}$ put the values in the very first equation $a_{max}=(1mm)(754)^2$ As we know $1mm=10^{-3}m$ so $a_{max}=10^{-3}\times(754)^2$ $a_{max}=10^{-3}\times568516$ $a_{max}=10^{-3}\times5.68516\times10^5$ $a_{max}=5.7\times10^2\frac{m}{s^2}$
