Question

certain force acting on a 20kg mass changes its velocity from 5m/ s to 2m/s calculate the work done by the force​

Answer 1

Mass, m = 20 kg

Initial velocity, u = 5 m/s

Final velocity, v = 2 m/s

Time, t = 1s

From first equation of motion 

v = u + at

or, a = (v - u)/t 

a = (2 ms-1 - 5 ms-1)/15

a = -3 ms-2

From third equation of motion,

v² - u² = 2as

⇒ (2ms-1)² - (5ms-1)² = 2 x (-3ms-²) x s

⇒          -21 m²s-² = -6 ms-² x s

⇒ s = 7/2 m

Work done = F x s

Force = m x a

Therefore,

W = m x a x s

    = 20 kg x (-3ms-²) x 7/2 m

   = -210 Joules
