Shows the potential energy of a 500
g
particle as it moves along the
x
-axis. suppose the particle's mechanical energy is 12
j
.

figure
1 of 1
the figure shows the potential energy of a particle moving along the x-axis. the energy is measured in joules. there is a linear vertical potential barrier at x equal to 1 meter. for x from 1 to 4 meters the energy linearly increases from 2 to 8 joules. for x from 4 to 6 meters the energy linearly decreases to 0. for x from 6 to 8 meters the energy linearly increases to 12 joules and keeps growing for further distances.

part a
where are the particle's turning points?
express your answer using two significant figures. enter your answers in ascending order separated by commas.

the higher the current the higher the mag field around it the higher the influence on the compass

d₁ = displacement of tern from arctic to antarctic = 11000 miles

d₂ = displacement of tern from antarctic to arctic =   - 11000 miles

d = total displacement for the journey

total displacement for the journey is given as

d = d₁ + d₂

d = 11000 + (-11000)

d = 0 miles

t₁ = time of travel from arctic to antarctic = 3 months = 3 x 30 days = 90 days

t₂ = time of travel from antarctic to arctic = 3 months = 3 x 30 days = 90 days

t = total time of travel

total time of travel is given as

t = t₁ + t₂

t = 90 + 90

t = 180 days

average velocity is given as

average velocity = total displacement/ total time

v = d/t

v = 0/180

v = 0 miles/day

1.195000

explanation:

total mass=0.0117+0.0137+0.0881+0.0111

total mass= 0.01172kg

total velocity = 0.283-0.743+0.871-0.799+0.155+0.637+0.301=0.102

momentum=mv=0.1172*0.102=1.195000//
