The figure shows the variation of potential energy of a particle as a function pf x, the x-coordination of the region. It has been assumed that potential energy depends only on `x`. For all other values `x, U` is zero. i.e. for` x lt - 10` and `x gt 15, U = 0`.

If total mechanical energy of the particle is `25J`, then it can found in the region

A

`(a)-10ltxlt-5` and `6ltxlt15`

B

`(b)-10ltxlt0` and `6 ltxlt10`

C

`(c)-5ltxlt6`

D

`(d)-10ltxlt10`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`U=E-K=25-K`
Since, `Kge0`
`:. U le 25J`
