Question
The total energy of particle, executing simple harmonic motion is
-
∝ x
-
∝ x2
-
independent of x
-
∝ x1/2
Solution
C.
independent of x
In simple harmonic motion when a particle is displaced to a position from its mean position, then its kinetic energy gets converted into potential energy and vice-versa. Hence, total energy of a particle remains constant or the total energy in simple harmonic motion does not depend on displacement x.
