Question

What do you conclude from the graph about the frequency of $$KE, PE$$ and $$SHM$$ ?

A. Frequency of $$KE$$ and $$PE$$ is double the frequency of $$SHM.$$

B. Frequency of $$KE$$ and $$PE$$ is four times the frequency $$SHM.$$

C. Frequency of $$PE$$ is double the frequency of $$KE.$$

D. Frequency of $$KE$$ and $$PE$$ is equal to the frequency of $$SHM.$$

Answer : Frequency of $$KE$$ and $$PE$$ is double the frequency of $$SHM.$$

Solution :
$$KE$$ and $$PE$$ completes two vibration in a time during which $$SHM$$ completes one vibration. Thus frequency of $$PE$$ or $$KE$$ is double than that of $$SHM.$$
