For a body performing simple harmonic motion,its potential energy is $E_x$ at displacement $x$ and $E_y$ at displacement $y$ from the mean position. The potential energy $E_0$ at displacement $(x+y)$ is

  • A
    $\sqrt{E_x^2+E_y^2}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{E_x-E_y}$
  • C
    $E_x+E_y$
  • D
    $E_x+E_y+2 \sqrt{E_x E_y}$

Vibrational motion possesses which type of energy?

$A$ particle executing a simple harmonic motion of period $2 \ s$. When it is at its extreme displacement from its mean position,it receives an additional energy equal to what it had in its mean position. Due to this,in its subsequent motion,

The potential energy of a simple harmonic oscillator,when the particle is halfway to its endpoint,is

Assertion $(A)$: In $S.H.M$,kinetic and potential energy become equal when the distance is $1/\sqrt{2}$ times its amplitude. Reason $(R)$: The potential energy of a particle executing $S.H.M$ is periodic with time period being maximum at the extreme displacement.
