MCQ
Displacement between maximum potential energy position and maximum kinetic energy position for a particle exciting $\text{S.H.M.}$ is:
  • A
    $\pm\frac{\text{a}}{2}$
  • B
    $\pm1$
  • $\pm\text{a}$
  • D
    $-1$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\pm\text{a}$
In $\text{S.H.M.}$, the maximum $\text{P.E.}$ is at the extreme position and maximum $\text{K.E.}$ is at the mean position.
