Question:

A block of mass 10 kg, moving in x direction with a constant speed of 10 ms–1, is subjected to a retarding force F = 0.1 x J/m during its travel from x = 20 m to 30 m. Its final KE will be : 

Options:

450 J

275 J

250 J

475 J

Correct Answer:

475 J

Explanation:

W = - ∫ F dx

F = 0.1 x J/m

⇒ W = - ∫2030 0.1 x dx

W = - 0.1 \([\frac{x^2}{2}]_20^30\)

W =- 25 J

W = Kf - Ki

Ki = \(\frac{1}{2}(10)(10)^2\)

Kf = 475 J
