Let x be the distance where KE is equal to PE.
Kinetic energy of particles executing SHM is KE = \(\frac 12\)mω2(a2 − x2)
Potential energy of particles is given by PE = \(\frac 12\)mω2x2
Let x be the distance where
KE = PE
\(\frac 12\)mω2(a2 − x2) = \(\frac 12\)mω2x2
(a2 − x2) = x2
x = \(\frac a{\sqrt 2}\)
Kinetic energy equal to its potential energy at x = \(\frac a{\sqrt 2}\).
