Which graph represents the difference between total energy and potential energy of a particle executing $SHM$ vs its distance from mean position?

Options:

Answer:

Solution:

In a SHM, mechanical energy is conserved. So, the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy remains constant.
For a SHM,
$T . E . - U = K . E$
$\Rightarrow T . E . - U = \frac{1}{2} m v^{2} = \frac{1}{2} m ω^{2} (A^{2} - x^{2})$
This is the equation of a downward parabola.
