    SHM is executed by a particle of mass m, the, displacement of the particle is\[\left( \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \right)\] times the amplitude. What fraction or the total energy is kinetic at this displacement:

    A)  \[\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\]                                    

    B) \[\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\]

    C) \[\frac{3}{4}\]                                   

    D) \[\frac{1}{2}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                    Total energy \[{{E}_{T}}=\frac{1}{2}m{{\omega }^{2}}{{A}^{2}}\] \[{{E}_{k}}=\frac{1}{2}m{{\omega }^{2}}({{A}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}})\] \[=\frac{1}{2}m{{\omega }^{2}}\left( {{A}^{2}}-\frac{{{A}^{2}}}{2} \right)\,\,\,\,\left( \because \,\,y=\frac{A}{\sqrt{2}} \right)\] \[{{E}_{k}}=\frac{1}{2}\left( \frac{1}{2}m{{\omega }^{2}}{{A}^{2}} \right)=\frac{{{E}_{T}}}{2}\]                 So,          \[\frac{{{E}_{k}}}{{{E}_{T}}}=\frac{1}{2}\]
