When the amplitude of a body executing SHM becomes twice what happens?

  • A
    Maximum potential energy is doubled
  • B
    Maximum kinetic energy is doubled
  • C
    Total energy is doubled
  • Correct answer
    D
    Maximum velocity is doubled

Solution

$v_{\max }=A \omega$ when $A$ becomes twice $v_{\max }$ is also doubled.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
