In L2(ℝd;ℂn), we consider a selfadjoint matrix strongly elliptic second order differential operator Aε, ε >0. The coefficients of the operator Aε are periodic and depend on x/ε. We study the behavior of the operator Aε -1/2sin (τAε 1/2), τ∈ℝ, in the small period limit. The principal term of approximation in the (H1→ L2)-norm for this operator is found. Approximation in the (H2→ H1)-operator norm with the correction term taken into account is also established. The results are applied to homogenization for the solutions of the nonhomogeneous hyperbolic equation ∂ 2τuε =-Aε uε +F.
