Question: Let U be the potential energy ( with the zero at zero displacement ) and K be the kinetic energy of a simple harmonic oscillator.

Let U be the potential energy (with the zero at zero displacement) and K be the kinetic energy of a simple harmonic oscillator. Uavg and Kavg are the average values over a cycle. Then:
Group of answer choices
K_avg = U_avg.
K + U =0.
K_avg > U_avg.
K_avg < U_avg.
K =0 when U =0.
