1. In an engine rotating at 1500 rpm, a cam is used to open and close a valve during half of its rotation. The displacement of the valve rod is 25 mm. If the outstroke and return stroke is simple harmonic motion, (a) determine the maximum acceleration and velocity of the cam (b) also determine the displacement of the follower during cam positions at 30°, 60°, 90°, 120°, and 152° (Take 0° when the follower starts to move upwards). (c) During what position(s) of the cam does maximum velocity occur?

Hi please help me with this question. Thank you

1. In an engine rotating at 1500 rpm, a cam is used to open and close a valve during half of its rotation. The
displacement of the valve rod is 25 mm. If the outstroke and return stroke is simple harmonic motion, (a)
determine the maximum acceleration and velocity of the cam (b) also determine the displacement of the
follower during cam positions at 30°, 60°, 90°, 120°, and 152° (Take 0° when the follower starts to move
upwards). (c) During what position(s) of the cam does maximum velocity occur?
