When the displacement of a particle executing simple harmonic motion is half its amplitude, the ratio of its kinetic energy to potential energy is ______.
When the displacement of a particle executing simple harmonic motion is half its amplitude, the ratio of its kinetic energy to potential energy is 3 : 1.
Explanation:
x = A cos ωt
x = `"A"/2`
we get ωt = 60°
`"KE"/"PE" = (1/2 "m"ω^2"A"^2 sin^2 ω"t")/(1/2 "m"ω^2"A"^2 cos ω"t")`
= tan2 ωt
= tan2 60°
= 3
