The total energy of a simple harmonic oscillator is proportional to
Options
(a) square root of displacement
(b) velocity
(c) frequency
(d) square of amplitude
Correct Answer:
square of amplitude
Explanation:
The total energy of a simple harmonic oscillator
(1/2). mω²A² (or) (1/2). kA²
Therefore it is proportional to the square of the amplitude.
