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.
