A linear harmonic oscillator of force constant `2 xx 10^(6) Nm^(-1)` and amplitude 0.01 m has a total mechanical energy of 160 J. Its

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Maximum `K.E.=1/2KA^(2)=1/2xx2xx10^(6)xx(0.01)^(2)=100J`
since total energy is 160 J, Maximum P.E. is 160 J.
From this it is understood that at the mean position potential energy of the simple harmonic oscillator is minimum which need not be zero.
`PE_("min")=TE-KE_("max")=160-100=60J=KE_("min")=0`
