Total: 70
A force is applied on a body of mass 20‌kg moving with a velocity of 40ms−1. The body attains a velocity of 50ms−1 in 2 seconds. Calculate the work done by the body.
Solution:  
‌ Force ‌‌=m‌
(v−u)
t
=‌ m.a. ‌

‌ Displacement ‌‌=‌
(v2−u2)
2a

‌ Work done ‌‌=‌ Force ‌×‌ Displacement ‌
‌=‌ m.a. ‌‌
(v2−u2)
2a
