A conservative force has the
potential energy function U(x) as
shown by the graph. A particle
moving along x direction under the influence of only this force has kinetic energy 1.0 J when it is at position X1.
When of the following is/are correct statement (s) about the motion of the particles?

Answer:
Right answers are: (a) It oscillates
(b) It cannot reach either x0 or x2
Explanation:
kinetic energy is V(x1) = 1 J
As kinetic energy ≥ 0
U(x1) ≤ -1J
Conclusion: From the graph we can say that the particle will oscillate between potential energy range -1J to -2J and it will never reach x0 and x2 point.
