$A$ body is executing simple harmonic motion of amplitude $a$ and period $T$ about the equilibrium position $x=0$. Large numbers of snapshots are taken at random of this body in motion. The probability of the body being found in a very small interval $x$ to $x+|dx|$ is highest at

When a particle of mass $m$ moves on the $x$-axis in a potential of the form $V(x)=kx^2$,it performs simple harmonic motion. The corresponding time period is proportional to $\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$,as can be seen easily using dimensional analysis. However,the motion of a particle can be periodic even when its potential energy increases on both sides of $x=0$ in a way different from $kx^2$ and its total energy is such that the particle does not escape to infinity. Consider a particle of mass $m$ moving on the $x$-axis. Its potential energy is $V(x)=\alpha x^4$ $(\alpha>0)$ for $|x|$ near the origin and becomes a constant equal to $V_0$ for $|x| \geq X_0$ (see figure).
