![A particle of mass m moves along the x-axis. Its potential energy at any point x is
-x2
V(x) = V, x*e*
V,= constant
a. Find the force on the particle.
b. Find all the points on the x- axis where the particle can be in equilibrium
and determine whether each equilibrium point is stable or unstable. Sketch the
potential energy and label the equilibrium points.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Ff3088407-d92b-45ff-8ac4-2f84d26f317b%2Ff30befc5-8c3c-4c33-84fa-6512384c846c%2F7p66scm_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
