19M.1A.HL.TZ2.16

An object at the end of a spring oscillates vertically with simple harmonic motion (shm). The graph shows the variation with time $t$ of the displacement $x$ of the object.

What is the velocity of the object?

A. $- \frac{{2\pi A}}{T}\sin \left( {\frac{{\pi t}}{T}} \right)$

B. $\frac{{2\pi A}}{T}\sin \left( {\frac{{\pi t}}{T}} \right)$

C. $- \frac{{2\pi A}}{T}\cos \left( {\frac{{\pi t}}{T}} \right)$

D. $\frac{{2\pi A}}{T}\cos \left( {\frac{{\pi t}}{T}} \right)$
