Work done by Diff type of forces
Question

A force F = 20 + 10y acts on a particle in y-direction, where F is in newton and y is in metre.  Work done by this force to move the particle from y = 0 to y = 1 m is [NEET 2019]

Moderate
Solution

Work done by a force F, which is variable in nature in 

moving a particle from y1 to y2 is given by  W=y1y2F·dy   (i) 

Given, force,  F=20+10y,y1=0 and y2=1 m

Substituting the given values in Eq. (i), we get

W=01(20+10y)dy=20y+10y2201

=20(1-0)+5(1-0)2=25

   Work done by the force will be 25 J.
