In a simple harmonic motion (SHM), where is the kinetic energy of the oscillating particle maximum?
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
In Simple Harmonic Motion (like a swinging pendulum), velocity is maximum when the particle passes through its equilibrium or mean position. Since Kinetic Energy = ½mv², KE is maximum at the mean position. At the extreme positions, the velocity is briefly zero, meaning kinetic energy is zero and potential energy is maximum.
