Physics · Work, Energy and Power
The potential energy (V) versus distance (x) of a particle is given by a graph containing distinct regions AB, BC, CD, and DE. In these regions, the slope of V-x represents the force magnitude, where F = -dV/dx. If the magnitudes of the slopes of these regions are such that |slopeBC| > |slopeAB| > |slopeDE| > |slopeCD|, rank the various regions according to the magnitude of the force acting on the particle from highest to lowest.
- 1FBC > FAB > FDE > FCD✓
- 2FCD > FDE > FAB > FBC
- 3FCD > FAB > FBC > FDE
- 4FBC > FCD > FDE > FAB
Correct answer
FBC > FAB > FDE > FCD
