Question

In a simple harmonic motion

• A. the maximum potential energy equals the maximum kinetic energy
• B. the minimum potential energy equals the minimum kinetic energy
• C. the minimum potential energy equals the maximum kinetic energy
• D. the maximum potential energy equals the minimum kinetic energy

Answer 1

Answer: (C), (D)

The correct options are
C the minimum potential energy equals the maximum kinetic energy
D the maximum potential energy equals the minimum kinetic energy

C. the minimum potential energy equals the maximum kinetic energy

D. the maximum potential energy equals the minimum kinetic energy

$PE+KE=CONSTANT$

At the maxima point the potential energy will be maximum and the kinetic energy will be zero.

At the equilibrium point the potential energy will be zero and kinetic energy will be maximum.

And in mid of them there will be a point at which the P.E = K.E.
