QUESTION:
An object attached to a spring exhibits simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 4.0 cm. When the object is 2.0 cm from the equilibrium position, what percentage of its total mechanical energy is in the form of potential energy? (a) one-quarter, (b) one-third, (c) one-half, (d) two-thirds, (e) three-quarters
ANSWER:Step 1 of 4
We have given
The amplitude of the object
The displacement of the object
Here, we need to find out the relationship between the mechanical and potential energy of the object.
