Energy in SHM: Practice Problem & Solution

A particle is executing S.H.M., If its P.E. & K.E. is equal then the ratio of displacement & amplitude will be :
1/√2
√2
1/2
3/2

Short Solution (Best for NEET):

To solve this problem, we apply the core principles of Energy in SHM. Understanding the underlying formula is key to arriving at the correct answer below:

\[ K.E= \frac{1}{2}K\left(A^{2}-x^{2} \right) \]

\[ P.E= \frac{1}{2}Kx^{2} \]

\[ \frac{1}{2}K\left(A^{2}-x^{2} \right)= \frac{1}{2}Kx^{2} \]

\[ x= A/\sqrt{2} \]
