question 56

Short Answer

FIGURE 8-8
-A 2.0 kg mass is moving along the x axis. The potential energy curve as a function of position is shown in Fig. 8-8. The kinetic energy of the object at the origin is 12 J. The system is conservative. There is no friction.
(a) What will be the kinetic energy at 2.0 m along the +x-axis?
(b) What will be the speed of the object at 6.0 m along the +x-axis?
