Work by a Constant Force

A particle moves from position 3i^+2j^−6k^3\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} - 6\hat{k} to 14i^+13j^+9k^14\hat{i} + 13\hat{j} + 9\hat{k} due to uniform force of (4i^+j^+3k^)(4\hat{i} + \hat{j} + 3\hat{k}) N. If displacement is in metre then work done will be

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. Work by a constant force: W=F⃗⋅s⃗W = \vec{F}\cdot\vec{s}.
  2. s⃗=(14−3)i^+(13−2)j^+(9+6)k^=11i^+11j^+15k^\vec{s} = (14-3)\hat{i} + (13-2)\hat{j} + (9+6)\hat{k} = 11\hat{i} + 11\hat{j} + 15\hat{k} m
  3. W=4(11)+1(11)+3(15)=44+11+45=100W = 4(11) + 1(11) + 3(15) = 44 + 11 + 45 = 100 J
  4. So the answer is (a) 100100 J.
