Write the criteria for determining whether an equilibrium is stable or unstablewhen all derivatives up through order n, (d"U/dx"), = 0.247. Consider a particle moving in the region x>0 under the influence of the potentialU(x) = Upwhere U, = 1 J and a = 2 m. Plot the potential, find the equilibrium points, anddetermine whether they are maxima or minima.248.
