Halliday, Resnick & Walker β€” Oscillations: Problem Problem_89

A 3.0 kg particle is in simple harmonic motion in one dimension and moves according to the equation \(x = (5.0 \text{ m}) \cos[(\pi/3 \text{ rad/s})t - \pi/4 \text{ rad}]\), with \(t\) in seconds. (a) At what value of \(x\) is the potential energy of the particle equal to half the total energy? (b) How long does the particle take to move to this position \(x\) from the equilibrium position?
