The total energy of a particle, executing simple harmonic motion is
A
B
C
Independent of 
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
In simple harmonic motion, as a particle is displaced from its mean position, its kinetic energy is converted to potential energy and vice versa and total energy remains constant. The total energy of simple harmonic motion is independent of x .
