Physics of Sound

  1. A particle of mass m oscillates with simple harmonic motion between points x1 and x2, the equilibrium position being O. Its potential energy is plotted. It will be as given below in the graph.​​

Correct Option: B

Potential energy ∝ (Amplitude)2 ∝ ​​​​​​(Displacement)2
​P.E.is  maximum at maximum distance. ​
P.E. is zero at equilibrium point. ​
P.E. curve is parabolic.
