question 72

Multiple Choice

A particle is in simple harmonic motion along the x axis.The amplitude of the motion is x_m.At one point in its motion its kinetic energy is K = 5 J and its potential energy (measured with U = 0 at x = 0) is U = 3 J.When it is at x = x_m, the kinetic and potential energies are:

• A)K = 5 J and U = 3 J
• B)K = 5 J and U = -3 J
• C)K = 8 J and U = 0 J
• D)K = 0 J and U = 8 J
• E)K = 0 J and U = -8 J
