Certain force acting on a 20 kg mass changes its velocity from 5 m s–1 to 2 m s–1. Calculate the work done by the force.
Answers
Given,
Mass, m = 20 kg
Initial velocity, u= 5 ms-1
Final velocity, v= 2 ms-1
Work done = change in K. E.
W = 1 half mv2 - 1 half mu2
= 1 half m ( v2 - u2)
= 1 half x 20 x (22 - 52)
= 10 (4-25)
= -10 x 21
= -210 J
Here, the negative sign implies the retarding nature of the applied force.
If this helps then plzzzzz mark me brainliest.
_/\_Hello mate__here is your answer--
_______________________
Given:-
Mass of the body = 20 kg
Initial velocity = 5 m/s
Final velocity = 2 m/s
To find:- work done by body
Solution:-
We know that,
work done =Change in kinetic energy
= 1/2mu^2 - 1/2mv^2
= 1/2m(u^2 − v^2)
= 1/2(20)(5^2 − 2^2)
= 10(25 − 4)
= 210 J
I hope, this will help you.☺
Thank you______❤
