Question

A particle is shifted from point (0,0,1 m) to (1 m,1 m,2 m), under the simultaneous action of several forces. Two of the forces are F1=(2^i+3^j^k) N and F2=(^i2^j+2^k) N. Find the work done by these two forces

Solution

The correct option is B 5 J
As particle is shifted from point (0,0,1 m) to (1 m,1 m,2 m)
Displacement vector Δr=(^i+^j+^k)
net force acting is F1+F2=(2^i+3^j^k) N+(^i2^j+2^k) N=(3^i+^j+^k)
Work done by a constant force equals to the dot product of the force and displacement vectors.
W=F.ΔrW=(F1+F2).Δr
Substituting the given values, we have W=(3^i+^j+^k).(^i+^j+^k)=3+1+1=5 J
