Simple Harmonic Motion 5 Question 9
14. If the total energy of the particle is $E$, it will perform periodic motion only if
(a) $E<0$
(b) $E>0$
(c) $V _0>E>0$ (
(d) $E>V _0$
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: 14. (c)
Solution:
- If $E>V _0$, particle will escape. But simultaneously for oscillations, $E>0$.
Hence, the correct answer is $V _0>E>0$
or the correct option is (c).
