5.Work, Energy, Power and Collision
normal
The work done by a force $\vec F = \left( { - 6{x^3}\hat i} \right)\,N$ in displacing a particle from $x = 4\,m$ to $x = -2\,m$ is ............... $\mathrm{J}$
A
$-240$
B
$360$
C
$420$
D
will depend upon the path
Solution
$\int {dW} = \int {\vec F\,d\vec s} = – \int\limits_4^{ – 2} {6{x^3}dx} $ $=360\,J$
