    Circular orbit with V(r) = Cr² potential and total energy

    Homework Statement (a) A light particle of mass m orbits in a circular orbit around a massive attractive centre with a potential that is given by V(r) = Cr^2 (b) Using the equations for circular motion show that the total energy of such a particle must be given by E = 2Cr^2 Use...
