A particle free to move along the x-axis has potential energy given by U(x)=k[1e-x2] for x+, where k is a positive constant of appropriate dimensions. Then 

(1) At point away from the origin, the particle is in unstable equilibrium

(2) For any finite non-zero value of x, there is a force directed away from the origin

(3) If its total mechanical energy is k/2, it has its minimum kinetic energy at the origin

(4) For small displacements from x = 0, the motion is simple harmonic
