    $x = x_1$
  • B
    $x = x_2$
  • C

The figure shows the frictional force versus displacement for a particle in motion. The loss of kinetic energy in travelling over $s = 0$ to $20\, m$ will be......$J$.

$A$ force $\overrightarrow F = - K(y\hat i + x\hat j)$ (where $K$ is a positive constant) acts on a particle moving in the $x-y$ plane. Starting from the origin,the particle is taken along the positive $x$-axis to the point $(a, 0)$ and then parallel to the $y$-axis to the point $(a, a)$. The total work done by the force $\overrightarrow F$ on the particle is
