The force acting on a body moving along ...

The force acting on a body moving along x-axis varies with the position of the particle shown in the figure. The body is in stable equilibrium at
.

A

`x=x_(1)`

B

`x=x_(2)`

C

both `x_(1)` and `x_(2)`

D

neither `x_(1)` nor `x_(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`F=0 at x=x^(2)`. When displaced from `x_(2)` in negative direction, force is positive i.e. in the opposite direction of displacement. displacement. Similarly, when displaced in positive dirction, force is negative.
