-
or a thing on a spring to behave. Okay?
-
This is not normalized.
-
But notice something else that's really valuable here,
-
really crucial, which is that this line is where the potential
-
and the total are the same for the red curve. Right?
-
So here is zero kinetic energy. In here the kinetic energy is positive,
-
out here it's negative,
-
and the thing can be out here. Right?
-
So the thing exists in a region of negative kinetic energy.
-
There's nothing special about that. Okay?
-
It's just that that's the way things work.
-
Kinetic energy can be negative. And in the case of the blue one,
