AP Physics C: Mechanics
7.4 Energy of Simple Harmonic Oscillators
7.3 Representing and Analyzing SHM

State 1: The block is at the equilibrium position \(x = 0\).
State 2: The magnitude of the net force acting on the block is \(\dfrac{1}{2}kA\).
State 3: The kinetic energy of the block is \(\dfrac{1}{4}E_{\text{total}}\), where \(E_{\text{total}}\) is the total mechanical energy of the oscillator.
State 4: The elapsed time since release is \(t = \dfrac{T}{2}\).
Which of the following correctly ranks the magnitude of the block's linear momentum, \(p\), in each state from greatest to least?
