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:

  • \(10 \, \text{J}\)
  • \(16 \, \text{J}\)
  • \(4 \, \text{J}\)
  • \(6 \, \text{J}\)

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
