The force acting on a body moving along ...

The force acting on a body moving along x-axis variation of the particle 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
(b) When displaced from `x_(2)` in negative direction, force is positive. So, this force is restoring in nature and will bring the body back. Hence, at `x_(2)` body is in stable equilibrium position.
