A force acts on a 3 g particle in such a way that the position of the particle as a function of time is given by x=3t−4t2+t3, where x is in meters and t is in second. The work done during the first 4 second is:
Given,
x=3t−4t2+t3
dx=d(3t−4t2+t3)=(3−8t+3t2)dt
Acceleration
a(x)=d2xdt=d2xdt=d(3−8t+3t2)dt=−8+6t
Work done =dw=ma.dx=m(6t−8)(3−8t+3t2)dt
∫W0dw=m∫40(6t−8)(3−8t+3t2)dt
W=m×176=0.003×176=528×10−3J
W=528×10−3J
