Question
An object with a 2.00 kg mass moving along the positive x axis in the +x direction has a speed of v = 2.50 m/s at the position x = 0.500 m and a potential energy of U(x) = (−4.00 J · m)/x. Determine the following.
(a) an expression for the x component of the force acting on the object at any position along the x axis (Use the following as necessary: x. Do not enter units in your expression.)
Fx =
(b) work done on the object by this force acting on the object fromx = 1.00 m to x = 1.94 m
J
