A Particle Is in Simple Harmonic Motion Along the X

Question 54

Multiple Choice

A particle is in simple harmonic motion along the x axis. The amplitude of the motion is xm. When it is at x = x1, its kinetic energy is K = 5 J and its potential energy (measured with U = 0 at x = 0) is U = 3 J. When its kinetic energy is 8 J, it is at:


A) x = 0
B) x = x1
C) x = xm/2
D) x = xm/ A particle is in simple harmonic motion along the x axis. The amplitude of the motion is x<sub>m</sub>. When it is at x = x<sub>1</sub>, its kinetic energy is K = 5 J and its potential energy (measured with U = 0 at x = 0) is U = 3 J. When its kinetic energy is 8 J, it is at: A) x = 0 B) x = x<sub>1</sub> C) x = x<sub>m</sub>/2 D) x = x<sub>m</sub>/ E) x = x<sub>m</sub>
E) x = xm
