The potential energy of the system is represented in the first figure. The force acting on the system will be represented by:

A

B

C

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

As slop of position graph is position and constant upto cartain distance and then it becomes zero
As from `F = (-dU)/(dx)` up to distance `a, F` = constant (negative and becomes zero suddenly)
