Current Question (ID: 9877)

Question:
$\text{The potential energy of a particle in a force field is } U = \frac{A}{r^2} - \frac{B}{r} \text{ where A and B are positive constants and r is the distance of the particle from the centre of the field. For stable equilibrium, the distance of the particle is:}$
Options:
  • 1. $\frac{B}{A}$
  • 2. $\frac{B}{2A}$
  • 3. $\frac{2A}{B}$
  • 4. $\frac{A}{B}$
Solution:
\text{Hint: } F = -\frac{dU}{dr} \text{Step: Find the distance of the particle from centre of the field.} \text{Given: The potential energy of the particle in a force field is:} U = \frac{A}{r^2} - \frac{B}{r} \text{For stable equilibrium, } F = -\frac{dU}{dr} = 0 \frac{dU}{dr} = -\frac{2A}{r^3} + \frac{B}{r^2} = 0 B = \frac{2A}{r} \text{The distance of the particle from centre of the field is given by:} r = \frac{2A}{B} \text{Hence, option (3) is the correct answer.}
