MCQ
In SHM:
  • A
    PE is stored due to elasticity of system.
  • B
    KE is stored due to inertia of system.
  • C
    Both KE and PE are stored by virtue of elasticity of system.
  • D
    Both (a) and (b).

Answer

  1. Both (a) and (b).

Exlanation:

In SHM, potential energy depends on its elastic behaviour and kinetic energy on its inertial behavior. In case of mass m oscillating on spring. KE is due to motion of m and PE is due to stretching of spring.
