B) Both kinetic and potential energies are maximum at extreme position.
C) Kinetic energy is maximum at mean position and potential energy is maximum at extreme position.
D) Kinetic energy is maximum at extreme position and potential energy is maximum at mean position. ​

Answer 1

Explanation:

in travelling transverse wave in string for a small element

A) Both kinetic and potential energies are maximum at the mean position.

B) Both kinetic and potential energies are maximum at extreme position.

C) Kinetic energy is maximum at mean position and potential energy is maximum at extreme position.

• D) Kinetic energy is maximum at extreme position and potential energy is maximum at mean position.

Answer 2

Answer:

In SHM, kinetic energy is maximum at mean position and zero at the extreme positions while potential energy is zero at mean position and maximum at the extreme positions.
