The correct answer is:
In simple harmonic motion, kinetic energy is given by,
.
So, the graph is a downward parabola.
Here, amplitude of simple harmonic motion
and displacement from mean position in simple harmonic motion
and.
So, the graph is an upward parabola.
At mean,
and potential energy is, .
At extreme positions,
.
