Question

In simple harmonic motion, loss of kinetic energy is proportional to

• A. $e^x$
• B. $x^3$
• C. $log\,x$
• D. $x^2$

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

$x^2$

Answer 2

In simple harmonic motion, loss of kinetic energy is proportional to the square of amplitude of oscillation. i.e., loss of kinetic energy $\propto x^{2}$
