Homework Statement
Let's consider the motion with energy E of a one-dimensional mechanical system whose potential satisfies : V(x)=V(-x) lim(x→ + ∞) V(x)/x^2= + ∞
Relevant Equations
Determine the limit for E → + ∞ of this motion
I have no idea about a possible solution, please help me :)

lim of which function? for any motion E=const
I do not understand what this is. For example ##L=\dot x^2/2-V,\quad V=(x^2-1)^2## and?
