The potential energy of a simple harmoni...

The potential energy of a simple harmonic oscillator when the particle is halt way to its end point is (E is total energy) .......... .

A

`(2)/(3)E`

B

`(1)/(3)E`

C

`(1)/(4)E`

D

`(1)/(2)E`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`PE=(1)/(2)Kx^(2) implies PE_(v_(2))=(1)/(2)K((A)/(2))^(2)=(1)/(4)((1)/(2)KA^(2))`
`PE_(v_(2))=(1)/(4)E`
