The potential energy of a particle of mass 0.1kg, moving along the x-axis, is given by U = 5x(x – 4)J, where x is in meter. It can be concluded that
  1. the particle is acted upon by a constant force.
  2. the speed of the particle is maximum at x = 2 m.
  3. the particle executes SHM.
  4. the period of oscillation of the particle is \(\frac{\pi}{5} \mathrm{~s}\).

Answer

(B) the speed of the particle is maximum at x = 2 m., (C) the particle executes SHM., (D) the period of oscillation of the particle is 5 ~s .
