For any S.H.M., amplitude is 6 cm . If instantaneous potential energy is half the total energy then distance of particle from its mean position is

A

3 cm

B

4.2 cm

C

5.8 cm

D

6 cm

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

If at any instant displacement is y then it is given that
`U=1/2xxE rArr 1/2momega^2y^2=1/2xx(1/2momega^2a^2)`
`rArr y=a/sqrt2=6/sqrt2`=4.2 cm
