Solution

The correct option is D 4
According to work-energy theorem, work done by the force is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the body.
Thus, change in kinetic energy is
=KEfinalKEinitial=200 J100 J=100 J=Work done
We know that, Work done=force×displacement
Therefore, 100=25×displacement.
So, the displacement = 4 m.
