In many problems where the potential energy is considered between two objects, the potential energy is defined as zero when the particles are in infinite distance apart. Using the definition of potential energy, explain why the potential energy would be positive if the force between the particles is repulsive and negative if the force between the particles is attractive for noninfinite distances.
