  • question_answer
    A particle executes S.H.M. with an amplitude 4 cm. The displacement where its energy is half K.E. and half HE. is:

    A)  \[2\sqrt{2}\]cm

    B)         2 cm     

    C)         \[\sqrt{2}\]cm

    D)         \[\frac{3}{\sqrt{2}}\]cm

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    If amplitude of S.H.M. is a, then at a distance \[\frac{a}{\sqrt{2}}\] from mean position half energy is as P.E. and half is as K.E. If \[a=4\]then \[\frac{4}{\sqrt{2}}=2\sqrt{2}cm\] At \[2\sqrt{2}\]half energy is as RE. and half is as K.E.
