- Paragraph :
When a particle of mass \(m\) moves on the \(x\)-axis in a potential of the form \(V(x)=k x^2\), 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 \(k x^2\) and its total energy is such that the particle does not escape to infinity. Consider a particle of mass \(\mathrm{m}\) 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).

JEE Advanced 2012 Medium - Paragraph:
The mass of a nucleus \({ }_{Z}^{A} X\) is less than the sum of the masses of \((A-Z)\) number of neutrons and \(Z\) number of protons in the nucleus. The energy equivalent to the corresponding mass difference is known as the binding energy of the nucleus. A heavy nucleus of mass \(M\) can break into two light nuclei of masses \(m_{1}\) and \(m_{2}\) only if \(\left(m_{1}+m_{2}\right) \lt M\). Also two light nuclei of masses \(m_{3}\) and \(m_{4}\) can undergo complete fusion and form a heavy nucleus of mass \(M^{\prime}\) only if \(\left(m_{3}+m_{4}\right) \gt M^{\prime}\). The masses of some neutral atoms are given in the table below:
