The variation of kinetic energy (KE) of a particle executing simple harmonic motion with the displacement (x) starting from mean position to extreme position
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
The formula to calculate the kinetic energy of a particle executing SHM is given by
...
Substitute 0 for x into equation to obtain the kinetic energy at the mean position.


Substitute A for x into equation to obtain the kinetic energy at the end points.

= 0
Hence, the variation can be shown as follows-
