It is actually caused by the environment, so its false. :)
Change in position of object = Displacment
When an object in simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement, its <u>acceleration</u> is also at a maximum.
<u><em>Reason</em></u><em>: The speed is zero when the simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement, however, the acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. The velocity reverses the direction at that point therefore its rate of change is maximum at that moment. thus the acceleration is at its maximum at this point</em>

Answer:
W = 16.4 kJ
Explanation:
Given that,
There are 135 steps from the ground floor to the sixth floor.
Each step is 16.6 cm tall.
The mass of a person, m = 73.5 kg
We need to find the work done by the person. We know that,
Work done = Fd
Where
d is the displacement, d = 135 × 0.166 = 22.41
So,
W = 73.5 × 10 × 22.41
= 16471.35 J
or
W = 16.4 kJ
So, 16.4 kJ is the work done by the person.
