Answer:
The total mechanical energy of a simple harmonic oscillating system is Constant
Explanation:
During the movement of an object in simple harmonic motion, the total mechanical energy is constant
The total mechanical energy is given by [tex]E_{Total} = KE +PE = \frac{1}{2} kx^2+\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]
By the conservation of energy principle the energy in the simple harmonic motion transforms between kinetic and potential energy while maintaining a constant sum
