Homework Statement
The figure shows a potential energy curve for the interaction of two neutral atoms. The two-atom system is in a vibrational state indicated by the heavy solid horizontal line.
(a) At r = r1, what are the approximate values of the kinetic energy K, the potential energy U, and the quantity K+U?
K =
U = -1.3 eV
K+U =
Homework Equations
U=0.5*Ks^2
The Attempt at a Solution
I can't for the life of me figure out how to find K, I feel like it should be really easy, but I'm at a loss of where to start.
If anyone could give me jumping off point at least I'd be very grateful. Thanks
