A particle, which is constrained to move along the x-axis, is subjected to a force in the same direction which varies with the distance x of the particle from the origin as
F(x) = –kx + ax3. Here k and a are positive constants. For
x ≥ 0, the functional graphically form of the potential energy U(x) of the particle is
