The position for a particular simple harmonic oscillator is given by $\mathrm{x}(\mathrm{t})=$ $(0.15 \mathrm{~m}) \cos (\pi t+\pi / 3) \cdot x(t)=(0.15 \mathrm{~m}) \cos (\pi t+\pi / 3) \cdot$ What are (a) the velocity of the oscillator at $t=1.0 \mathrm{~s}$ and $(\mathrm{b})$ its acceleration at $t=2.0 \mathrm{~s}$ ?
