The kinetic energy and potential energy of a particle executing simple harmonic motion will be equal, when displacement (amplitude = \(a\)) is
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\frac{a}{{\sqrt 2 }}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
(c) Suppose at displacement \(y\) from mean position potential energy = kinetic energy
==> \(\frac{1}{2}m({a^2} - {y^2}){\omega ^2} = \frac{1}{2}m{\omega ^{\rm{2}}}{y^2}\)
==> \({a^2} = 2{y^2}\)
==> \(y = \frac{a}{{\sqrt 2 }}\)
