Question
The maximum kinetic energy of a spring system undergoing oscillatory motion about its equilibrium position is located at? A) The equilibrium position B) Maximum displacement from equilibrium C) Cannot be determined without knowledge of the direction of the +x-axis The maximum kinetic energy of a spring system undergoing oscillatory motion about its equilibrium position is located at? A) The equilibrium position B) Maximum displacement from equilibrium C) Cannot be determined without knowledge of the direction of the +x-axis A) The equilibrium position B) Maximum displacement from equilibrium C) Cannot be determined without knowledge of the direction of the +x-axisExplanation / Answer
Correct option is (A)
At equillibrium position totale energy is stored in the form kinetic eenrgy i.e Kmax =(1/2)mvmax^2
At equilibrium position x =0
At this position potentil energy is zero
U = (1/2)kx^2 =0
