The correct Answer is:
To find the average values of kinetic energy (KE) and potential energy (PE) of a particle executing simple harmonic motion (SHM), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the equations for kinetic and potential energy 1. **Kinetic Energy (KE)**: The kinetic energy of a particle in SHM can be expressed as: \[ KE = \frac{1}{2} m v^2 \] where \( v \) is the velocity of the particle. The velocity can be derived from the displacement \( x = A \cos(\omega t + \phi) \): \[ v = \frac{dx}{dt} = -A \omega \sin(\omega t + \phi) \] Therefore, substituting for \( v \): \[ KE = \frac{1}{2} m (A \omega \sin(\omega t + \phi))^2 = \frac{1}{2} m A^2 \omega^2 \sin^2(\omega t + \phi) \] 2. **Potential Energy (PE)**: The potential energy in SHM is given by: \[ PE = \frac{1}{2} k x^2 \] where \( k = m \omega^2 \) (the spring constant). Substituting for \( x \): \[ PE = \frac{1}{2} m \omega^2 (A \cos(\omega t + \phi))^2 = \frac{1}{2} m A^2 \omega^2 \cos^2(\omega t + \phi) \] ### Step 2: Calculate the average values over one period 1. **Average Kinetic Energy**: The average kinetic energy over one period \( T \) is given by: \[ KE_{\text{avg}} = \frac{1}{T} \int_0^T KE \, dt = \frac{1}{T} \int_0^T \frac{1}{2} m A^2 \omega^2 \sin^2(\omega t + \phi) \, dt \] Using the identity \( \sin^2(\theta) = \frac{1 - \cos(2\theta)}{2} \): \[ KE_{\text{avg}} = \frac{1}{T} \cdot \frac{1}{2} m A^2 \omega^2 \int_0^T \frac{1 - \cos(2(\omega t + \phi))}{2} \, dt \] The integral of \( \cos(2(\omega t + \phi)) \) over one period is zero, so: \[ KE_{\text{avg}} = \frac{1}{T} \cdot \frac{1}{2} m A^2 \omega^2 \cdot \frac{T}{2} = \frac{1}{4} m A^2 \omega^2 \] 2. **Average Potential Energy**: Similarly, for potential energy: \[ PE_{\text{avg}} = \frac{1}{T} \int_0^T PE \, dt = \frac{1}{T} \int_0^T \frac{1}{2} m A^2 \omega^2 \cos^2(\omega t + \phi) \, dt \] Using the identity \( \cos^2(\theta) = \frac{1 + \cos(2\theta)}{2} \): \[ PE_{\text{avg}} = \frac{1}{T} \cdot \frac{1}{2} m A^2 \omega^2 \int_0^T \frac{1 + \cos(2(\omega t + \phi))}{2} \, dt \] Again, the integral of \( \cos(2(\omega t + \phi)) \) over one period is zero: \[ PE_{\text{avg}} = \frac{1}{T} \cdot \frac{1}{2} m A^2 \omega^2 \cdot \frac{T}{2} = \frac{1}{4} m A^2 \omega^2 \] ### Final Result: Thus, the average values of kinetic energy and potential energy over one period are: \[ KE_{\text{avg}} = \frac{1}{4} m A^2 \omega^2 \] \[ PE_{\text{avg}} = \frac{1}{4} m A^2 \omega^2 \]

To find the average values of kinetic energy (KE) and potential energy (PE) of a particle executing simple harmonic motion (SHM), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the equations for kinetic and potential energy 1. **Kinetic Energy (KE)**: The kinetic energy of a particle in SHM can be expressed as: \[ KE = \frac{1}{2} m v^2 ...
