Question

i) In SHM
a) Potential energy is stored due to elasticity of system
b) Kinetic energy is stored due to inertia of system
c) Both KE and PE are stored by virtue of elasticity of system
d) Both (a) and (b)​

Answer 1

Answer:

O.N - (4) is the correct answer

Answer 2

In SHM potential energy is stored due to the elasticity of the system and kinetic energy is stored due to inertia of the system(option d)

Simple Harmonic Motion

• The periodic motion of a point along a straight line is defined as the Simple Harmonic Motion
• The acceleration will be always towards a fixed point in that line
• The acceleration is directly proportional to its distance from that point
• Potential energy is the energy formed due to motion.
• There occurs an uninterrupted exchange of Kinetic energy and potential energy in simple harmonic motion.
• The total summation of kinetic and potential energy should be the same at all the times of oscillation when the mechanical energy is conserved
• The energy in the simple harmonic motion is the sum of both the kinetic and potential energy
• Elasticity is required for the Inertia of the system
