Question

What is the work done by constant force to stop an object of mass m moving with velocity v.

Open in App

Solution

Dear student,

Work done to stop object of mass m moving with velocity v must be equal to the kinetic energy of the object.That is negative of kinetic energy.The negative signs means force causing work done must be opposite to the velocity of the object.
