A rigid body is defined as a system consisting of a large number of point masses, called particles, such that the distance between the pairs of point masses remain constant even when the body is in motion, or under the action of external forces. This is an idealized definition of a rigid body, because A. There is no such thing as true point masses or particles B. No body of any physical size is strictly rigid because it becomes deformed under the action of applied forces c. Any object of any physical size is strictly rigid because it is made up of true point masses or particles D. Only A and B are correct E. Only A and C are correct F. Only B and C are correct

Consider the van der Waals potential U(r)=U0[( R 0 r)122( R 0 r)6] , used to model the potential energy function of two molecules, where the minimum potential is at r=R0 . Find the force as a function of r. Consider a small displacement R=R0+r and use the binomial theorem: (1+x)n=1+nx+n( n1)2!x2+n( n1)( n2)3!x3+ , to show that the force does approximate a Hooke’s law force.
