Question:easy
There is a body having mass \(m\) and performing SHM with amplitude '\(a\)'. There is a restoring force \(F = -Kx\), where \(x\) is the displacement. The total energy of the body depends upon which of the following?
There is a body having mass \(m\) and performing SHM with amplitude '\(a\)'. There is a restoring force \(F = -Kx\), where \(x\) is the displacement. The total energy of the body depends upon which of the following?

- \(K,a,x\)
- \(K,a,v\)
- \(K,x\)
- \(K,a\)
Show Solution
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Add KE and PE
$E=\frac12mv^2+\frac12Kx^2$ is constant at all times and equals $\frac12Ka^2$. Option (D).
Final Answer:
Option (D). \[ \boxed{\text{(D)}} \]
