A particle is vibrating in a simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 4 cm. At what displacement from the equilibrium position, is its energy half potential and half kinetic

a
1 cm
b
2cm
c
3 cm
d
22cm

detailed solution

Correct option is D

Let x be the point where K.E. = P.E. Hence 12mω2(a2−x2)=12mω2x2⇒2x2=a2 ⇒x=a2=42=22cm
