Assertion : The graph of potential energy and kinetic energy of a particle in SHM with respect to position is a parabola. Reason : Potential energy and kinetic energy do not vary linearly with position.

A light spring is vertical and a mass less pan is attached to it. Force constant of the spring is k. A block of mass m is gently dropped on the pan. Plot the variation of spring potential energy, gravitation potential energy and the total potential energy of the system as a function of displacement (x) of the block. For gravitational potential energy take referece level to the initial postion of the pan.
