Help
An isolated system of two identical particles, each of mass m, is described by an energy function
E = ½ m |v1|^2 + ½ m |v2|^2 + ½ k |x1 – x2|^2
How can I use conservation of energy to find the acceleration of each particle in terms of the position of the particle? I would be thankful if someone could give me a hint ?
