NEET Physics Kinetic Energy MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11

A block attached to a spring is compressed by a distance x from its equilibrium position. If the spring constant is k, what is the kinetic energy of the block when it passes through the equilibrium position?

A

0.5 * k * x^2

B

k * x

C

0.5 * m * v^2

D

m * g * h

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The kinetic energy at the equilibrium position is equal to the potential energy stored in the spring when compressed, given by V(x) = 0.5 * k * x^2.
