Answer:
A Em
1 ½ K
2 ½ k 4 = 2k
3 ½ k 9 = 4.5 k
4 ½ k 16 = 8k
Step-by-step explanation:
The total mechanical energy of a simple harmonic movement is constant in time, let's look for the energy at one end of the movement, where the velocity of the body is zero.
Em = U = ½ k x²
at the end x = A
Em = ½ k A²
Let's build a table for the energy and as a function of the amplitudes of the movement
A Em
1 ½ K
2 ½ k 4 = 2k
3 ½ k 9 = 4.5 k
4 ½ k 16 = 8k
as a function of the lowest energy
1 Eo = ½ k
2 4Eo
3 9 Eo
4 16Eo
