Physics Oscillations MHT CET

A particle of mass m is hanging vertically by an ideal spring of force constant k. If the mass is made to oscillate vertically, its total energy is

(A)maximum at extreme position
(B)maximum at mean position
(C)minimum at mean position
(D)same at all positionsCorrect

Answer: (D)

Solution

The total energy of an oscillator is conserved (kinetic plus potential energy), so it is the same at
