Detailed Solution

In simple harmonic motion, the total energy of the particle is constant at all instants which is totally kinetic when particle is passing through the mean position and is totally potential when particle is passing through the extreme position.
The variation of PE and KE with time is shown in the figure, by dotted parabolic curve and solid parabolic curve respectively. 

Figure indicates that maximum values of total energy, KE and PE of SHM are equal.
Now,  EK = K0cos2 ωt

  (Ek)Max = K0

So, (Ep)Max = K0 and (E)Total = K0
