  1. An object performs simple harmonic motion with frequency (f). The distance between the extreme positions at which the object is at rest is (b).
A horizontal line with an equilibrium position O marked at its center. Arrows extend from O to the left and right, indicating 'extreme position'. The distance from one extreme position to the other is labeled 'b'.
A horizontal line with an equilibrium position O marked at its center. Arrows extend from O to the left and right, indicating 'extreme position'. The distance from one extreme position to the other is labeled 'b'.

What is the speed of the object when it is halfway between its equilibrium position O and its extreme position?
