Answer:

speed maximum

restoring force minimum

Explanation:

When the particle executing SHM is at its mean position or equilibrium position, then its velocity is maximum and the kinetic energy is also maximum. It is because the kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the velocity as velocity maximum then kinetic energy is also maximum.

The acceleration is minimum at the equilibrium position so the restoring force is also minimum t its equilibrium position.
