A particle executes SHM of period 8 seconds. After what time of its passing through the mean position will the energy be half kinetic and half potential ?

Answer» Here, `T=8s,`
As, `PE=KE`
`:. (1)/(2)ky^(2)=(1)/(2)k(A^(2)-y^(2)) or y^(2)=A^(2)-y^(2)`
`y=(A)/(sqrt(2))`
Now, `y=Asin omega t =A sin ((2pi)/(T))t`
`:. (A)/(sqrt(2))=A sin ((2pi)/(8))t`
or `sin ((pit)/(4))=(1)/(sqrt(2))=sin ((pi)/(4))`
or ` (pit)/(4)=(pi)/(4) or t=1s`
