Answer to Question #54837 in Mechanics | Relativity for MAYANK BISHT

Question

The potential energy (in J) of a system in one dimension is given by:

2 3 U (x) = 5 − x + 3x − 2x
What is the work done in moving a particle in this potential from x = 1 m to x = 2 m? What
is the force on a particle in this potential at x = 1 m and x = 2 m? Locate the points of stable
and unstable equilibrium for this system.
