Q.
A particle of mass 10gm moves in a field where potential energy per unit mass is given by expression U=8×104x2erg/gm. If the total energy of the particle is 8×107 erg then the relation between x and time t is:[ϕ= constant ]
Potential energy per unit mass of a particle is given as (1/2)ω2x2 and equating the given value with this expression we get the value of ω=400rad/s and Total energy is (1/2) ω2A2 which gives the amplitude 10cm.
