A particle with total energy `E` moves in one dimemsional region where the potential energy is `U(x)` The speed of the particle is zero where

A

`U(x)=0`

B

`U(x)=E`

C

`(dU(x))/(dx)=0`

D

`(d^(2)U(x))/(dx^(2))=0`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Total energy `E=K+U` if `K=0` then `U=E`
