2. Two identical undamped oscillators have the same amplitude of oscillation only if they are started with the same :
displacement x0
velocity v0
phase
2 x02  v02
x02  2 v02
<PowerClick><Answer>4</Answer><Option>5</Option></PowerClick>

3.  same A requires same E.
displacement x0
velocity v0
phase
2 x02  v02
x02  2 v02
Different v0 gives different A.
Different x0 gives different A.
A is indifferent to phase.
Same E gives same A.
Sum is meaningless.

doubling only the initial displacement
doubling only the initial speed
doubling the initial displacement and halving the initial speed
doubling the initial speed and halving the initial displacement
doubling both the initial displacement and the initial speed

A particle is in simple harmonic motion along the x axis. The amplitude of the motion is xm. When it is at x = x1, its kinetic energy is K = 5J and its potential energy (measured with U = 0 at x = 0) is U = 3J. When it is at x = –1/2xm, the kinetic and potential energies are :
K = 2J and U = 6J
K = 6J and U = 2J
K = 2J and U = – 6J
K = 6J and U = – 2J
K = 5 and U = 3J
