MHT CET Physics question

Which one of the following statements is true for a particle performing S. H. M.? [MHT-CET 2008]

(A)Kinetic energy is half the potential energy of the particle at displacement equal to amplitude of S. H. M.
(B)Kinetic energy of the particle is maximum at displacement equal to amplitude of S. H. M.
(C)Kinetic energy of the particle is maximum at displacement equal to zeroCorrect
(D)Kinetic energy of the particle is minimum at displacement equal to zero

Answer: (C)

Solution

Since , it is maximum at x = 0 and zero at x = A (so (b) is false, and (a) is
