The potential energy function for a particle executing linear simple harmonic motion is given by $V(x) = k x^{2} / 2$,where $k$ is the force constant of the oscillator. For $k = 0.5 \; N m^{-1}$,the graph of $V(x)$ versus $x$ is shown in the figure. Show that a particle of total energy $1 \; J$ moving under this potential must 'turn back' when it reaches $x = \pm 2 \; m$.
