The particles can undergo small oscillations around x₂.

The given parameters;

  • initial energy of the particles = E₁
  • final energy of the particles, E₂ = 0.33E₁

The movement of the particles depends on the kinetic energy of the particles.

When kinetic energy of the particles is 100%, the particles can oscillate from x₁ to x₅.

However, when the total energy of this particles is reduced to one-third (¹/₃) or 33% of the initial energy of the particle, the oscillation of the particles will be reduced.

  • The maximum position the particle can oscillate is x₅
  • The half position the particles can oscillate is x₃

Since 33% is less than the half of the energy of the particle, the particle will oscillate between x₁ and x₂.

Thus, we can conclude that the particles can undergo small oscillations around x₂.
