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.
