Q101 / 180 · NEET 2015 (Phase 1) · Physics

A block of mass 10 kg, moving in x direction with a constant speed of 10 m s-1 , is subjected to a retarding force F=(0.1)x J m-1 during its travel from x=20 m to 30 m . Its final kinetic energy will be:

  • Correct answer
    A
    475 J
  • B
    450 J
  • C
    275 J
  • D
    250 J

Solution

m=10 kg, u=10 m s-1

Final KE will be given by

KEf=KEi+W

=12mu2+∫2030-0.1xdx

=12×10×100+-0.1x222030 

=500+-0.12900-400

KEf=500+-0.15002=475 J

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
