PhysicsEasysingle choice

A particle is placed at the origin and a forceF=kxis acting on it (wherekis a positive constant). IFU(0)=0, the graph ofU(x)versusxwill be (whereUis the potential energy function)

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

F = - dU dx       ⇒     ∫ dU = - Fdx

U 2 - U 1 = - kxdx   ⇒   U = - 1 2 kx 2
