    Answer:

    -0.75 m

    Explanation:

    The displacement of the girl is given by x = x₀cosωt where x₀ = maximum displacement of swing = 1.5 m, ω = angular frequency = π/3 rad/s and t = time of swing = 4 s

    Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

    x = x₀cosωt

    x = (1.5 m)cos(π/3 rad/s × 4 s)

    x = (1.5 m)cos(2π/3)

    x = (1.5 m)cos120°

    x = 1.5 m × -0.5

    x = -0.75 m

    So, the girl is 0.75 m to the left of the equilibrium position 4 seconds into the motion.
