Homework Statement
1. A man's superelastic suspenders catch on a fence post, he flies back and forth, oscillating with an amplitude A. What distance does he movee in one period ? What is his displacement over 1 period
Homework Equations
x=Acos(wt)
The Attempt at a Solution
I know that the displacement is 0 since he returns to the original position. I also know that the distance should be 4A but I don't know how to explain it. It just makes sense to me.
How do I prove that distance is 4A ?
