A particle of mass m is hanging vertically by an ideal spring of force constant K . If the mass is made to oscillate vertically, its total energy is

A

maximum at the extreme position

B

maximum at the mean position

C

minimum at the mean position

D

same at all positions.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
The block executes SHM. In SHM, the total energy remains constant at all positions.
