(C) The work done is given by the line integral $W = \int \overrightarrow F \cdot d\overrightarrow r = \int (-K(y\hat i + x\hat j)) \cdot (dx\hat i + dy\hat j) = -K \int (y\,dx + x\,dy) = -K \int d(xy)$.Path $1$: From $(0, 0)$ to $(a, 0)$. Here $y = 0$,so $dy = 0$. The work done $W_1 = -K \int_0^a (0) dx = 0$.Path $2$: From $(a, 0)$ to $(a, a)$. Here $x = a$,so $dx = 0$. The work done $W_2 = -K \int_0^a (a) dy = -K[ay]_0^a = -Ka^2$.Total work done $W = W_1 + W_2 = 0 + (-Ka^2) = -Ka^2$.

Difficult

$A$ 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

View Solution

$A$ particle experiences a variable force $\overrightarrow{F} = (4x \hat{i} + 3y^2 \hat{j})$ in a horizontal $x-y$ plane. Assume distance is in meters and force is in newtons. If the particle moves from point $(1, 2)$ to point $(2, 3)$ in the $x-y$ plane,the kinetic energy changes by............$J$.
