$A$ uniform chain of length $L$ and mass $M$ is lying on a smooth table and one-third of its length is hanging vertically down over the edge of the table. If $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity, the work required to pull the hanging part onto the table is

While a person climbs stairs,the gravitational potential energy of the person increases. The source of this energy is

$A$ particle is placed at the origin and a force $F = kx$ is acting on it (where $k$ is a positive constant). If $U(0) = 0$,the graph of $U(x)$ versus $x$ will be (where $U$ is the potential energy function):

The potential energy function for the force between two atoms in a diatomic molecule is approximately given by $U(x) = \frac{a}{x^{12}} - \frac{b}{x^6}$,where $a$ and $b$ are constants and $x$ is the distance between the atoms. If the dissociation energy of the molecule is $D = [U(x = \infty) - U_{\text{at equilibrium}}]$,then $D$ is:

The potential energy of a particle in a central field has the form $U(r) = \frac{1}{r^2} - \frac{1}{r}$, where '$r$' is the distance from the centre of the field. The magnitude of the maximum attractive force in Newton is
