Kinetic energy K = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} = \frac{1}{2}ma^{2}\omega^{2}\cos^{2}\omega t = \frac{1}{2}ma^{2}\omega^{2}(1 + \cos 2\omega t)

Hence, Kinetic energy varies periodically with double the frequency of SHM .i.e, 2\omega.

 

Average value of potential energy with respect to t -

Average\: o\! f \\U=\frac{\int v\; dt}{ \int dt}


 

- wherein

\because U= \frac{1}{2}Kx^{2}

average of U

= \frac{\int \frac{1}{2}m\omega ^{2}A^{2}\sin ^{2}\omega t}{\int dt}

= \frac{1}{4}m\omega ^{2}A^{2}
