Energy in SHM

There is a body having mass mm and performing SHM with amplitude 'aa'. There is a restoring force F=−KxF = -Kx, where xx is the displacement. The total energy of the body depends upon which of the following?

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

  1. Total energy E=12Ka2E = \dfrac{1}{2}Ka^2.
  2. It depends only on the force constant KK and amplitude aa, not on xx or vv.
  3. So the answer is (d) K,aK, a.
