    The variation of potential energy of harmonic oscillator is as shown in figure. The spring constant is

    A)            1 ´102 N/m                           

    B)            150 N/m

    C)            0.667 ´ 102 N/m                  

    D)            3 ´ 102 N/m

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                       Total potential energy = 0.04 J Resting potential energy =0.01 J Maximum kinetic energy =(0.04?0.01) \[=0.03J=\frac{1}{2}m\ {{\omega }^{2}}{{a}^{2}}=\frac{1}{2}k{{a}^{2}}\] \[0.03=\frac{1}{2}\times k\times {{\left( \frac{20}{1000} \right)}^{2}}\] \[k=0.06\times 2500\ N/m=150\ N/m\].
