A particle starts S.H.M. from the mean position. Its amplitude is a and total energy E. At one instant  its kinetic energy is 3E/4. Its displacement at this instant is

a
y=a2
b
y=a2
c
y=a3/2
d
y=a

detailed solution

Correct option is B

Total energy, E=12 mω2a2K.E.=3E4=12 mω2(a2−y2) So, 34=a2−y2a2 ⇒ y2=a24 ⇒y=a2 .
