Chapter 7, Problem 7E.6AE

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The energy of the particle with $\nu =0$ and force constant $1000\text{N}{\text{m}}^{\text{-1}}$ and $100\text{N}{\text{m}}^{\text{-1}}$ has to be calculated.  The separation between the classical turning points when force constant is $1000\text{N}{\text{m}}^{\text{-1}}$ and $100\text{N}{\text{m}}^{\text{-1}}$ has to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

A system that experiences a restoring force when displaced from its equilibrium position is known as the harmonic oscillator.  The restoring force experienced by the system is directly proportional to the displacement.  Masses connected to the spring and the pendulums are the examples of harmonic oscillator.
