A 0.50-kg object is attached to an ideal spring of spring constant (force constant) 20 N/m along a horizontal, frictionless surface. The object oscillates in simple harmonic motion and has a speed of 1.5 m/s at the equilibrium position
At what distance from the equilibrium position are the kinetic energy and potential energy of the system the same? A) 0.017 m
B) 0.029 m
C) 0.12 m
D) 0.17 m
