Chapter 10, Problem 28EAP
- FIGURE EX10.28 shows the potential energy of a 500 g particle as it moves along the x-axis. Suppose the particle’s mechanical energy is 12 J.
- Where are the particle’s turning points?
- What is the particle’s speed when it is at x = 4.0 m?
- What is the particle’s maximum speed? At what position or positions does this occur?
- Suppose the particle’s energy is lowered to 4.0 J. Can the particle ever be at x = 2.0 m? At x = 4.0 m?
