$A$ block is placed on a horizontal plank. The plank is performing $SHM$ along a vertical line with an amplitude of $40 \, cm$. The block just loses contact with the plank when the plank is momentarily at rest. Then:

Two particles $P$ and $Q$ describe simple harmonic motions of same period,same amplitude,along the same line about the same equilibrium position $O.$ When $P$ and $Q$ are on opposite sides of $O$ at the same distance from $O,$ they have the same speed of $1.2 \, m/s$ in the same direction. When their displacements are the same,they have the same speed of $1.6 \, m/s$ in opposite directions. The maximum velocity in $m/s$ of either particle is
