1.

A particle is placed at the origin and a force F=Kx is acting on it (where k is a positive constant). If `U_((0))=0`, the graph of `U (x)` verses x will be (where U is the potential energy function.)A. B. C. D.

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`F=kx`
`U=-int_(0)^(x)Fdx=-int_(0)^(x)kxdx=-(1)/(2)kx^2`
U v/s x graph will be a parabola, open downward
