6. The graph below shows the potential energy curve of a particle moving along the x-axis under the influence of a conservative force. Note that the total energy E > U(x), so that the particle's speed is never zero. Use Hints: Think about the relationship between a conservative force and its potential energy. . Force to the right is positive x and to the left is negative x a. In which interval(s) of x is the force on the particle to the right? b. At what value(s) of x is the magnitude of the force a minimum? c. At what value of x is the magnitude of the force a maximum? U(x) E n 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 x (m)
