A classical particle confined to the positive x-axis experiences a force whose potential energy is

(a) By finding its minimum value and determining its behaviors at .x=0 and x=+∞, sketch this potential energy.
(b) Suppose the particle has an energy of 0.5 J. Find any turning points. Would the particle be bound?
(c) Suppose the particle has an energy of 2.0 J. Find any turning points. Would the particle be bound?
