Solution
The correct option is B4.5J Momentum=mass×velocity p=mu=u=pm=8kgms−14kg=2ms−1 Acceleration=ForceMass⇒a=0.2N4kg=0.05ms−2 Distance travelled by the body in 10s is d=ut+12at2 =(2ms−1)(10s)+12×(0.050ms−2)(10s)2 =20m+2.5m=22.5m Work done, W=Fd=(0.2N)(22.5m)=4.5J According to work-energy theorem Increasing in kinetic energy =Workdone=4.5J.
