(choose chapter or problem)

A particle can move along only an x axis, where conservative forces act on it (Fig. 8-66 and the following table). The particle is released at x 5.00 m with a kinetic energy of K 14.0 J and a potential energy of U 0. If its motion is in the negative direction of the x axis, what are its (a) K and (b) U at x 2.00 m and its (c) K and (d) U at x 0? If its motion is in the positive direction of the x axis, what are its (e) K and (f) U at x 11.0 m, its (g) K and (h) U at x 12.0 m, and its (i) K and ( j) U at x 13.0 m?
