A force F=20+10y acts on a particle in y-direction where F is in newton and y in meter. Work done by this force to move the particle from y=0 to y=1 m is
1
30 J
2
5 J
3
25 J
4
20 J
Step-by-Step Solution
Work done by a variable force is W=∫yiyfFdy. Given yi=0,yf=1 m. W=∫01(20+10y)dy=[20y+210y2]01=20(1)+5(1)2=25 J.
