Kinetic energy and speed as approaches to infinity


Particle a has mass m, is initially located on the positive x axis at x = x0 and is subject to a repulsive force Fx from particle b. The location of particle b is fixed at the origin. The force Fx is inversely proportional to the square of the distance x between the particles. That is, Fx = A/x2, where A is a positive constant. Particle a is released from rest and allowed to move under the influence of the force. Find an expression for the work done by the force on a as a function of x. Find both the kinetic energy and speed of a as x approaches infinity.
