Solution

Work done along AD is equal to the area under the line AD.
Let E be the intersection between AB and straight line through D.
Let G and F be the points on x axis completing the rectangle EDFG
Area under AD= Area of triangle ADE+ Area of rectangle EDFG
=12×AE×ED+EG×ED
=12×(PAPD)×(VDVA)+(PD0)×(VDVA)
=12×0.4×105×1.1×103+0.6×105×1.1×103
=22+66=88J
