Question:
An object moving along horizontal x-direction with kinetic energy \(10 \, \text{J}\) is displaced through \(\mathbf{x} = (3\mathbf{i}) \, \text{m}\) by the force \(\mathbf{F} = (-2\mathbf{i} + 3\mathbf{j}) \, \text{N}\). The kinetic energy of the object at the end of the displacement \(\mathbf{x}\) is:

The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Work done (W) = $\vec{F} \times \vec{x} = (-2\hat{i} + 3\hat{j}) \times (3\hat{i}) = -6 \text{ J}$.
Work-energy theorem: W = ΔKE = KEf - KEi = -6 J = KEf - 10 J KEf = 4 J

- Given below are two statements:
Statement I: An object moves from position \( \vec{r}_1 \) to position \( \vec{r}_2 \) under a conservative force field \( \vec{F} \). The work done by the force is \[ W = -\int_{\vec{r}_1}^{\vec{r}_2} \vec{F} \cdot d\vec{r}. \]
Statement II: Any object moving from one location to another location can follow infinite number of paths. Therefore, the amount of work done by the object changes with the path it follows for a conservative force.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:- JEE Main - 2026

- Two masses \(m\) and \(2m\) are connected by a light string going over a pulley (disc) of mass \(30m\) with radius \(r=0.1\,\text{m}\). The pulley is mounted in a vertical plane and is free to rotate about its axis. The \(2m\) mass is released from rest and its speed when it has descended through a height of \(3.6\,\text{m}\) is ____________ m/s. (Assume string does not slip and \(g=10\,\text{m s}^{-2}\)).
