Question

A particle of mass m executes simple harmonic motion with amplitude a and frequency v. The average kinetic energy during its motion from the position of equilibrium to the end is:

Easy
Solution

x=A cos ωtv=dxdt=- sin ωt                      KE=12mv2=12mA2ω2sin2ωt      Average KE=12mA2ω2<sin2ωt>=12mA2ω2×12                            =π2ma2v2
