5.Work, Energy, Power and Collision
normal
A force acts on a $3.0\ g$ particle in such a way that the position of the particle as a function of time is given by:
$x = 3t - 4t^2 + t^3$
Where $x$ is in metres and $t$ is in seconds. The work done during the first $4\ s$ is ................. $\mathrm{mJ}$
A
$570$
B
$450$
C
$490$
D
$528$
Solution
$x=3 t-4 t^{2}+t^{3}$
$\frac{d x}{d t}=3-8 t+3 t^{2}$ and $a=\frac{d^{2} x}{d t^{2}}=-8+6 t$
Now, $\quad W=\int F d x=\int m a d x=\int m a \frac{d x}{d t} d t$
$=\int_{0}^{4} \frac{3}{1000} \times(-8+6 t)\left(3-8 t+3 t^{2}\right) d t$
On integrating, we get; $W=528 \mathrm{mJ}$
