STANDARD Physics Energy in SHM MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-conceptual-Easy-Class 11
In simple harmonic motion, at the extreme positions
A
kinetic energy is minimum, potential energy is maximum.
B
kinetic energy is maximum, potential energy is minimum.
C
both kinetic and potential energies are maximum.
D
both kinetic and potential energies are minimum.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
At the extreme positions of SHM, the velocity is zero, so kinetic energy is minimum. The displacement is maximum, so potential energy is maximum.
