Required Answer:
- Mass of the body = 20 kg
- Initial velocity, u = 5 m/s
- Final velocity, v = 2 m/s
According to work energy theoram,
- The work-energy theorem states that the net work done by the forces on an object equals the change in its kinetic energy.
Kinetic energy is given by the expression,
Now,
1) KE when velocity of object is 5 m/s:
= 1/2 (20)(5)² J
= 10 × 25 J
= 250 J
2) KE when velocity of object is 2 m/s
= 1/2 (20)(2)² J
= 10 × 4 J
= 40 J
According to theoram,
- Work done = Change in K.E.
Plugging the values of Initial and Final KE:
⇒ Work done = 40 J - 250 J
⇒ Work done = -210 J
*Here negative sign indicates that the force is acting opposite to the direction of motion of the object.
↪ Certain force acting on a 20 kg mass changes its velocity from 5 m/s to 2 m/s. Calculate the work done by the force.
◕ Mass of body = 20 kg.
◕ Final velocity = 5 m/s
◕ Initial velocity = 2 m/s
◕ Work done by the force
◕ Work done by the force = -210 J
◕ Formula to find Kinetic Energy
~ Let's find the Kinetic energy
☀ Let us find Kinetic Energy when the velocity of the object is 2 m/s
⇢
⇢
⇢
⇢
⇢ Kinetic energy = 40 Joules
☀ Let us find Kinetic Energy when the velocity of the object is 5 m/s
⇢
⇢
⇢
⇢
⇢ Kinetic energy = 250 Joules
~ Now as we know that,
⇢ Work done = Change in kinetic energy.
⇢ Work done = (45-250)J
⇢ Work done = -210 J
★ Distance = It is the length of actual path covered by a moving object in a given time interval.
★ Displacement = Shortest distance covered by a body in a definite direction is called displacement.
→ Displacement may be positive, negative or zero whereas distance is always positive.
→ Distance is a scaler quantity whereas displacement is a vector quantity both having the same unit.
→ In general magnitude of displacement ≤ Distance.
★ Velocity = Velocity of moving object is defined as the displacement of the object in unit time interval i.e., velocity = Displacement/Time. It's vector quantity and it's SI unit is metre/second.
★ Acceleration = Acceleration of an object is defined as the rate of change of velocity of the object i.e., Acceleration = Change in velocity/Time. It's vector quantity and SI unit is m/s²
★ If Velocity decreases with time then acceleration is negative and known to be retardation.
