An object of mass 0.5kg0 . 5kg is executing simple harmonic motion. It amplitude is 5cm5cm and time period (T) is 0.2s0 . 2s. What will be the potential energy of the object at an instant t=T4st = \dfrac{T}{4}s starting from mean position. Assume that the initial phase of the oscillation is zero.

Options

  1. A0.62J0 . 62J
  2. B6.2×10−3J6 . 2 \times {10}^{- 3}J
  3. C1.2×103J1 . 2 \times {10}^{3}J
  4. D6.2×103J6 . 2 \times {10}^{3}J

Correct answer

A. 0.62J0 . 62J

Step-by-step solution

T=2πmkT = 2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}

0.2=2π0.5k0 . 2 = 2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{0 . 5}{k}}

k=50π2k = 50{\pi}^{2}

≈500\approx 500

x=Asin(\omegat+ϕ)x = Asin ( \omegat + ϕ )

=5cmsin(\omegaT4+0)= 5cmsin\left(\dfrac{\omegaT}{4} + 0\right)

=5cmsin(π2)= 5cmsin\left(\dfrac{\pi}{2}\right)

=5cm= 5cm

PE=12kx2PE = \dfrac{1}{2}{kx}^{2}

=12(500)(5100)2= \dfrac{1}{2} ( 500 ) {\left(\dfrac{5}{100}\right)}^{2}

=0.6255= 0 . 6255
