The particle executing simple harmonic motion has a kinetic energy K0cos2t. The maximum values of the potential energy and the total energy are respectively
- AK0/2 and K0
- BK0 and 2K0
- CK0 and K0
- D0 and 2k0

Correct answer: C
Kinetic energy + potential energy = total energy
When kinetic energy is maximum, potential energy is zero and vice versa.
Maximum potential energy = total energy.
0 + K0 = K0 (K.E. + P.E. = total energy).
