JEE Main & Advanced Physics Wave Mechanics Question Bank Self Evaluation Test - Oscillations

  • question_answer
    A particle of mass m oscillates with simple harmonic motion between points \[{{x}_{1}}\] and \[{{x}_{2}}\], the equilibrium position being O. Its potential energy is plotted. It will be as given below in the graph.           

    A)  

    B)

    C)

    D)

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] \[Potential\text{ }energy\text{ }\propto {{\left( Amplitude \right)}^{2}}\propto {{(Displacement)}^{2}}\]P.E. is maximum at maximum distance. P.E. is zero at equilibrium point. P.E. curve is parabolic.
