The Particle Executing Simple Harmonic Motion Has A Kinetic Energy Physics QuestionThe Particle Executing Simple Harmonic Motion Has A Kinetic Energy Physics Question

The particle executing simple harmonic motion has a kinetic energy K₀ cos²ωt. The maximum values of the potential energy and the total energy are respectively

Options

(a) K₀/2 and K₀
(b) K₀ and 2 K₀
(c) K₀ and K₀
(d) 0 and 2 K₀

Correct Answer:

K₀ and K₀

Explanation:

Kinetic energy + Potential energy = total energy
When kinetic energy is maximum, potential energy is zero and vice versa.
.·. Maximum potential energy = total energy
0 + K₀ = K₀
(K.E + P.E = Total energy) .
