Kinetic energy

 \\*k = \frac{1}{2}m\omega^{2}(a^{2}-y^{2}) \\* = \frac{1}{2}\times 10\times (\frac{2\pi}{2})^{2}[10^{2} - 5^{2}] = 375\pi^{2}\;ergs

 

Kinetic energy in S.H.M. -

K.E.= \frac{1}{2}mu^{2}\\ \: \: \: = \frac{1}{2}m\left ( A^{2} -x^{2}\right )\omega ^{2}

 

- wherein

K.E.= \frac{1}{2}K\left ( A^{2}-x^{2} \right ) \\K= m\omega ^{2}
