A particle is moving in a straight line with simple harmonic motion. The period of the motion is (3pi/5)seconds and the amplitude is 0.4metres. Calculate the maximum speed of the particle.


The complex number -2sqrt(2) + 2sqrt(6)I can be expressed in the form r*exp(iTheta), where r>0 and -pi < theta <= pi. By using the form r*exp(iTheta) solve the equation z^5 = -2sqrt(2) + 2sqrt(6)i.
